    My memories of Kathy always include the big smile, a great laugh and a true Interest in whatever you were involved in. My favourite memory of Kathy was at our wedding. She and Clifford had just won a contest and were very proud of the box of Kraft Dinner prize. Much love to “her boys” & family, Bob, Aunt Jean, Mike & family, Keith & family, Lesley and & family.
