“ I am one of the "numerous cousins" mentioned in Kathleen's obituary. Having just learned of her demise, I am deeply saddened and very sorry for the enormous loss her wonderful family has suffered. Kathleen was an exceptionally good person who was deeply devoted to God and her family. Not only was she highly intelligent; of greater importance she was unfailingly kind and compassionate in all things. She loved serving and being helpful to others. Because she was so sweet and so diligent, she was one of my mother's all-time favorite piano students. While I am greatly grieved by her passing, I am thankful to have known her and proud to have been related to her. I extend my sincere sympathy and prayers to her immediate family. ”
