I will miss her.  She was maid-of-honor at my wedding back in 1965, and we have stayed in touch all these years.  We exchanged e-mails just the week before her death.  At that time her trainer had just come to the house, and she was going out for PT.  She said she was trying to stay strong.

I will miss Kathy.  We live close together.  We would go out to lunch frequently, along with her roommate, Carolyn.  It was fun keeping up with each other's lives. Rest in peace, muy friend.  Sue Spatz/Simecka
