May there be some comfort in knowing that friends share in the loss of your loved one. We planned on attending services but were unable to get the alley unblocked in time. Our sincerest apologies. We have many fond memories of Kitty from when we were neighbors and camped together. Those were good times. We will miss her and her hearty laugh.
