I gave you life, you gave me love! The greatest blessing in my life has been the children I have been able experience with them. They are precious beyond words! Children hold your parents close, parents hold you children tightly. The grandchildren are the sweet icing on life's cake! I love you to the moon my monkey. I'll look for little signs ( I'm sure you'll send them). Until we meet again you and Jenice take care of each other .
Oh my beautiful Ruthy. I love you more than words can say. I’ll miss you forever. Thank you for making me laugh like nobody else could. Sending so much love to your incredible family and your beautiful son. Love you forever!
Hey, it’s yer big bro. I‘m still at a loss for words mostly. I just keep thinking about all of the good times, and DAMN there were a lot. I love you, always forever.
Around 2010, I posted on Facebook about how much I wanted a copy of a CD I’d loved back in 2000. Kat immediately said she had it and offered to make me a copy. I was ecstatic.
The CD she gave me was—lovingly speaking—one of the roughest copies I’d ever heard. But that wasn’t the point. Kat saw someone who needed something, knew she could help, and stepped in without hesitation. That was who she was.
