My memory of Kathryn was that she helped to organize the Lutheran Church of Our Savior Breast Cancer Support in the Oceanview Merced Heights Ingleside (OMI) Community. She was always willing to help anyone who needed it. A God sent person on many occasions. She will be truly missed.

Auntie. Thank you for our special talks. You were always honest and straightforward with me. I admired you for your infinite wisdom and caring spirit. I’ll miss your soothing voice. You called me “Your Girl”…and that I will always be.
Thanking my dear Aunt for all her love and wisdom she shared with me through the years...
