I just wanted to say how MUCH Kathy meant to me and my family. She taught me so many things. Since we were 30 years apart in age, she was able to teach me plenty with all of her insight, experience, and wisdom. I worked with Kathy at Regional Surgical Specialists for many years and we loved the time we spent together! She was such an inspiration with her outlook on life and reminding me always, in any situation, to ask myself ‘How will this affect my eternity?’?
I have used this through the years to determine what to do next and how to let God lead. I love you, Kathy. I will miss you dearly.
I would like to express my condolences. The bible provides encouragement for all who struggle with this sad fact of life. In the book of Isaiah 25:8 it reads: ‘He will swallow up death forever, And the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces.’ God promises to end death and mourning. This scripture has provided me with hope and encouragement I hope it helps you at this difficult time.
