Prayers for you all. Kathy was amazing. She raised my kids for 17 years. But she really raised alot of us parents too. Always willing to dole out advise on anything you asked about. She could get a baby on a schedule like no other, or in our case babies, which ment she got us on a schedule too. She simply was the greatest sitter ever. Even after my kids graduated out of her care, I still on occasion threaten to call Kathy, knowing that a good " knock it off" was all they needed to hear. My kids share Kathy's house stories all the time. She will live on in our hearts. Thank you Kathy for all you did for us. Prayers of comfort to all of Kathy's kids in the world! Love, The Murphy Family
Our sincere condolences to Uncle Elden and family.

Kathy and Lisa raised my children for the first six and four years of their lives. They loved them as their own, and my children, my husband, and I are better people for having Kathy in our lives. We loved her. My deepest condolences.
Deepest sympathy, Jennifer Franklin
My sympathies to all, RIP Kathy
Kathy watched my three children over a ten year period of time. To say she was a great babysitter doesn't express much when you consider we saw her almost every day and basically helped raise my kids. It has been an honor to know her. My heartfelt wishes go out to her family.
Our sincere sympathy to all of Kathys family and friends Blessings always
