I meet Kitty only twice but she has left a impresion on me. She was a very nice sweet person. My parents Ray and Donna have told me she has made a diffrentce in many peoples lives,that she has helped many at her work place. She was a very caring person and will be missed by many who loved her and cared about her. @->-
What a wonderful lady. She was so kind and caring and helped me in every aspect of my life. I enjoyed working with her for many years and will greatly miss the motherly advice and beautiful friendship. I am so sorry for your loss. Debbie Lawson
My memories will never fade of a lady who will live on in me as being a strong, compassionate,and loving lady. She kept me in line at work, and gave me advice with childcare, marriage , every aspect. I could count on her to listen. No one is ever truly alone. Just as a rock bears the mark of countless winds and water, we all contain echoes of the people who have mattered in our lives. And she is one of those. Chrissy, I am sorry for your loss, maybe she and my Dad will meet up there and talk about us. It will be OK; I promise. Kelly Johns
I know that Kitty will be sadly missed by her family and she will be missed by us too. Ray and I both have fond memories of Kitty and will always remember her caring way. I will never forget the barbecue at the house when we got to ride horses and learned that the dog could say, "I'm hungry". You all are in our thoughts and prayers at this most difficult time. Ray and Donna Neal

My thoughts and prayers goes out to the entire family of Kitty. Unfortunately, I never met Kitty, but I heard great and wonderful things about this beautiful lady as if I personally knew her myself,,,like what kind of wife, mother, and grandmother she was. She was truly amazing from what I heard and from the video tribute, I can see you couldn't of asked for a better woman,,,what a blessed soul she was. She was definately the most prettiest flower in her garden :0). God Bless you all & take care, Becky (Ciara's Mom)

Kitty was such a wonderful lady. I worked with Kitty at SMMHC and she was always respectful and kind to all clients and co-workers. I never seen her angry, she always had a smile on her face. She will be sadly missed and will always be remembered with love and respect.
Dearest Laura and families, No one can begin to comprehend the loss of a mother and a best friend until it happens. Time does help heal the pain in your hearts now, but the loving memories you each have to cherish will only become brighter. Soon you will notice your mom's character very subtlety surfacing in yourselves. Our love, thoughts, and prayers are with you and yours at this very difficult time. Heartfelt sympathy,Barb&Tom.
