To Kate's Family, We all were very saddened to hear of Kate's passing. She will be sorely missed at the dining room table we all shared at the nursing home. We enjoyed her company and her life stories that she shared with us. Sometimes she didn't say a lot, but when she did she was very "matter of fact" with her words. She enjoyed listening and laughing to all the jokes that Toni would be telling at each meal. She was truly a special lady with a lot of history. She is at peace now as we all could see how she was failing. We knew she was ready when she wouldn't eat her 5 or 6 slices of bacon for breakfast anymore. Just not the same at the table without her. Our deepest sympathy to you all, Love from her friends at Florence Health Services Toni, Eileen, Dorothy, Barb and Rosie

Dear Friend Kate, thanks for the thirty some years of precious memories. You were like a mom to me, taught me to make angel food cakes, fudge and other goodies and wrote the chords on the music for me to play. We had lots of good times together. You were so gifted in music, sewing, knitting, cooking and just about everything you tried. You loved your faith, and your family and were very proud of your family. Bet your singing in Heaven. Love and miss you. Jeannejb
