When we think of Kathy ( Grammy ) our "hearts" smile. We will miss her in our lives greatly. She was always full of love and excitement. She often encouraged our girls in many ways from making a video of herself pulling her own tooth when Lynsie had a loose tooth that she was nervous about pulling; to dancing the "happy Dance" in a restaurant full of people to show she was excited about Laurie and Lynsie's good report cards. She was also a generous and welcoming hostess when we came to visit and was a wonderful cook. There are so many things that we will miss about her, but we are comforted to know that we will see her again one day. As in a pre-recorded book of her voice she gave Laurie and Lynsie, we say "so goodbye for now until we see each other again "!
We love you!
Lee, Julie, Laurie, Lynsie, and Lela.

I first met Kathy in junior high school. Even though she was in the class above nine, we were friends through high school and beyond. We re-connected years later in church one Sunday. That rekindled our connection and we did so many things together. Once she moved to Florida, I would visit her each year and when she visited Rochester, she would stay with me. We spent countless hours sharing our hearts with each other. We laughed, talked and had so many memories together. We both experienced Mercy Ships together, watched our families grow, so many memories. She loved her husband, children and grandchildren with her whole heart. She was a lot of fun and a great friend. I miss her terribly but I am happy for her being with her daughter and Savior. She is at Home and being loved. We shared our faith and I know she is at peace and where she longed to be. Til we meet again....

My memory of Kathy must have been to long, lol, I posted on her FB page. Love ya, sister, Maureen and John Reale

Kathy applied for my job at Westminster Services Construction Dept. I interviewed then sent her in to talk to the construction Vice President. I knew in the first 5 minutes Kathy was the perfect fit and so did her future boss. But, we already had a Kathy in the office so Kathy said “My given name is Kathleen so we can use it.” So for the time that she worked at Westminster Services we knew her as Kathleen. She was a special addition to our team and we all loved her dearly. When she announced she had met a lovely man online the four of us were alarmed, we needed to check this guy out! The internet is a dangerous place!
Well Kathleen said, with a smile, come for lunch and meet my Hal. I have to say, Hal was a very good sport. He understood we were concerned and answered all questions with honesty and grace. Needless to say we were all at their wedding. Such a well matched, loving couple!
Hal, you have my sympathy but Kathy is with her Lord and daughter. God Bless You!

I remember the first time I met Kathy was at Isabel’s home in Alton Bay right after you were married. Rich and I immediately were joyful and grateful you found each other.....so much love was shown from your hearts, your smiles, your eyes. You were God’s gift to each other and always will be. Kathy’s faith along with yours will be forever through eternity.

My fond memories of her go back to my childhood.. Her and her family made me feel like I was part of theirs..

Kathy was a vivacious and thoughtful lady. She could light up a room with her smile. She always made you feel special and at home wherever she was. She loved her family and and she loved those grand babies. She was a thoughtful and loving wife to Hal. She was a saint of the Most High and loved the fellowship with believers. She will be missed but one sweet day I will see her in glory. Rest In Peace Kathy

From the moment I met Kathy, I felt I had known her for years. Kathy was genuine, warm, hospitable, and fun to be with. Hal and Kathy were a blessing to watch. Love in action! Although she will be greatly missed, Kathy is in glory. ?? Praying for all who are missing her, especially Hal.

A friend in high school, I remember her being sweet, funny. She was liked by so many, she will be truly
missed.

Kathy was my big sister, always there for me our entire lives. She loved people, especially her husband, siblings, children and grandchildren. Kathy was our oldest sibling, keeping an eye on all of us and making sure we were all okay. She was there with me in my darkest days, and most likely, saved my live more than once. I find it very hard and painful knowing that I will never be able to call and chat, or go and visit with her, but I find comfort in knowing that she is where she has longed to be, safe in the arms of Jesus, with her daughter Alisa by her side, no longer in pain. I cherish the wonderful memories I have of Kathy and will love her and miss her always.
~ Jeanette Ekberg - July 14, 2020
Kathy was a very special person. Her positive attitude and love of life was infectious. She will be missed. God keep you close, Hal.
~ Lynn Griffis - July 14, 2020
I have not seen Kathy since she was a teenager. She was beautiful, smart, hip and very nice. I have kept up with her via Gloria over the years and was saddened to hear about her health issues. She had Lived a good life and helped others often Which I found admirable. I wish she could have had more time but unfortunately she did not and she will be missed by many. Rest in peace Kathy. Sending well wishes, hugs and prayers to your beloved family and friends

Kathy was a special person, I am better for having known her. She was always smiling, the love that she and Hal shared was obvious to all. Rest in peace, Kathy, you are home now.

Thank you for sharing Kathy with us, Hal. Her outlook on life and her trust in our Heavenly Father was a testimony and inspiration to us. She certainly was one of a kind. Our prayers are with you.
