Kathy was very involved in her kid's activities, such as soccer, baseball, football, ice skating, boy scout leader, girl scouts, and ROTC. She also gave blood as often as she could, giving gallons over the years! She loved helping others, especially as a caregiver for family members. Kathleen was a special and loving person, with a good sense of humor, and will be missed greatly!
