My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. I have known Kathy’s family for many years. Her sister Irene was one of my best friends.
So sad to learn of my cousins passing. She was like a sister to me, and along with many of our other cousins, grew up on Vernon Street and went to the same schools. She was a wonderful person who deeply cared for others especially her family. No doubt she will be missed by all who knew her. Condolences to Joe, her sons Brian and Jim and their families.
