I met Kathy when she was at Lyndhurst centre in Toronto. We have kept I touch for over 20 years. I didn't send xmas cards as I had cancer surgery recently. Went to call her last nite n her line was not in service. I talked to her on her bday. Always had a laugh when we chatted. Lena was to let me know when something happened. I Google Kathy n had a cry when I found out the news. She is at peace. My sympathy to her family. I remember Ted when he would come n pick Kathy up at Lyndhurst. Again my sympathies to the family. She was a special woman n I will miss her. Take care
