  4. Kathy, you have touched so many lives in your short time here. I have known you since you were a teenager. You made everyone Gadget Ladies for their showers. You gave us TC, our family dog. Most of all, you taught me how to make those special birthday cakes. Holly Hobby, Easter Eggs in 3d, and all the popular themes. Your best cake ever was your Princess Castle for Kathryn’s birthday.

    I will always remember driving with you on those winding roads in your Triumph down to the bluff. How I
    I even got into that car, pregnant with Michael as I was, I can’t even imagine. We had so many good times and millions of laughs. I love you and will miss you. May a merciful God bless your soul. Until we meet again……….to be continued.

    Love,
    Lynn
