Memories Timeline

Guestbook

  1. Mary Pryor (Saulino) Kathy and I were good friends in 9th and 10th grade. Kathy and her parents took me on a road trip to California back in the summer of 1961. Many good memories of our times together. She was a special, mischievous, artistic beauty. Rest in Peace my friend.

  2. I knew Kathy since St Raymond elementary and St Anthony’s. We were good friends.
    She was always creative and a beautiful girl. She had a wonderful smile and beautiful blue eyes.
    I will keep her and her family in my prayers.

  3. Mary and Karen have described Kathy well. Both of you put me in a fond, happy, yet wistful state of mind as I think of our school days as well as our reunions. Do you remember Kathy as a graceful dancer in grade school? she was known for her artwork in high school. I also think of how she traveled from California with her father so that he could visit in Michigan as well as her devotion to her son and husband. Rest in peace, beautiful classmate.

  4. Kathy was a darling person – the cutest girl in high school … fun-loving, gifted, intelligent and caring. My heart was so saddened to learn of her passing, and I know all of our classmates feel the same.

    My prayers go out on behalf of all of her family and all who loved Kathy. I am thankful her physical struggles of this life are over. May she rest in the arms of Jesus our Savior.

  5. Kathy, my Kathy (coffee)
    I can’t express how much I’ll miss you. It’s only for selfish reasons that I wish you were still here. Still here to talk with and be loved by you. So kind you are and loving. It’s been a couple yrs since you’ve seen your great grand babies but there last memory is beautiful. Taking them out for their favorites, hamburgers and ice cream! I will tell them stories of you and how amazing you were. I’m sorry you didn’t get to meet Elianna but she will know of you. Thank you for always taking my calls even when I could tell you were tired. May you rest beautifully now Kathy. I love you and will think of you often.
    Love Vivian
    I love you very much
