"Katherine has been a cherished Canadian Cousin of mine (our Scottish grandfathers were brothers) over a great many years and on the (sadly too few) occasions that I managed to visit my cousins in Toronto, Cobourg or London, she always gave me such a great welcome and was always so kind and caring and always had such a positive attitude to life. I have been in awe as to how she has managed to face her devastating last illness with such courage & fortitude and such cheerfulness, despite everything she must have been going through. I offer my deepest sympathy & condolences to Jim, her dear sister Janet, her sons David & Stephen and their wives & her grandchildren Maple, Noelle, Sam & Jake. I have so appreciated being kept up-to-date over the years, with news of family members via letters & emails (with photos) latterly, from 'across the pond’ with glimpses of Canadian life, fascinating & intriguing to read and often very different from customs or traditions in England. I will miss her so very much and cherish such fond memories of her, both when I have managed to see her & dear Janet & Jim & her lovely family in person and latterly sharing such wonderful email exchanges with her. They have been very precious times. With love and prayers, Cousin Jackie Gedling (in England).”
My heartfelt condolences to Jim and family. Kathy was a lovely, kind and caring individual with a great sense of humor. Those traits made her a wonderful teacher and friend.

Jim, David and Stephen, I have such happy memories of our times together. I hope that when you think of Kathy, you also see her as I do, with a smile on her face.
Jim - we were so sorry to hear of Kathy's passing. She was our son's french teacher at CDCI West many years ago.

Our thoughts and our prayers are with you and your family at this sad time.
Dear Jim and family, Sincerest condolences. I will always remember Kathy with her positive attitude, fantastic smile, love of her family, and her enjoyment of food. I first met her as a member of CFUW gourmet group. She was a super cook and hostess. She was also a great friend. With your talents Kathy, I’m sure God will keep you busy helping out in heaven! Rest In Peace. Love Donna

Jim, David, Stephen and families Kathy was our neighbour and a best friend for almost 40 years. She was the first one to come knocking on our door to welcome us to Bayview Cres.

She enjoyed life to the max and had the biggest circle of friends who are all going to miss her. May you find peace at this time and comfort in your memories Love Bill, Sharon & family

So sorry to hear of the passing of Kathy. She was my teacher many years ago. She was such a kind, intelligent and sincere person. I asked after her whenever I ran into other teachers when in Cobourg. I could tell that her family continued to fill her heart and her life.
My condolences to Jim, David and Stephen and their families. It seems like yesterday that we were making car pool arrangements to get our kids to school, soccer games etc. Kathy was such a friendly face at any event we ever attended. I also know she was an encouraging and positive role model for young teachers. We are all better off for having known her. She has earned her rest. And we have our memories of her forever.

Jim, though I did not know Kathy well, I found she was so very friendly every time we met..... always a big smile and a sponteneity that brightened my day. I know she will be missed by all who knew her. Condolences to you and the family.
My heartfelt sympathy to all of Kathy's family and friends. She was a member of our choir and a voice student of mine and I will always remember her humour, grace and deep kindness. Especially her wicked sense of humour abides in my memory, the dryness of her delivery that always left me thinking, "she's kidding right?" Then she would break out in that beautiful, mischievous smile. Kathy, we made you a recording of the choir singing I Hope You Dance...I know you did, fully and wholeheartedly...and I believe you still are.
Our sincere condolences to Jim and family. Kathy was a wonderful neighbor for many years. Also smiling and calling our a greeting. She was a wonderful woman and will be missed. Pat and Mary Ann
