Kathy was such an amazing woman. We were normally at work a little bit before everyone else and we had such fun conversations. Lots of laughing and sharing of our lives. I used to love listening to her stories about her family. I´m sorry for your loss. She was so full of life and I´m still shocked that she´s not with us.
