  1. My sincere condolences to Kathy’s family and loved ones. It is a sad time, but Kathy’s resides with the Lord Jesus now and all her suffering has passed. May God bless you all in your time of sorrow on her passing.

  2. My heart goes out to you and your family. What a blessing to know that some day you will see Kathy again in Heaven. God bless you all.

  3. Brent and Brian have been deer friends for a long time to me and my family. It is very hard these days to find good friends that show and share so much for their friends. I am so blessed to have been able to meet Brent and Brian’s parents and thank god for the fact they have been a part of my life and sons. It is clear that their parents brought up excellent children and that does not happen without a great Mother and Father. My prayers are with you and your family at this time. God Bless. David Weiherer

  4. I am very sorry to hear of Kathy passing. She was a wonderful person and I am glad to say she was family. I am not sure if I will be able to make it to see all of you but please know I am thinking of you and sending my best thoughts and prayers. Love, Michelle (McDaniel) Richardson and family.
