Kathy enjoyed putting backpacks together for the homeless. She enjoyed spoiling her animals on the farm, spending time on the boat and fishing with her husband. Kathy was a member of Crossroads Bible Church, Bedford. She enjoyed missions work and had many Haitian "children" she took under her wing and kept in touch with long after her trips to Haiti. When she traveled with her husband, they'd spend time volunteering at All For Him Ministries in Tennessee. Kathy suffered a long battle with COPD and Emphysema and fought hard until the very end.
As per Kathy's request, no funeral or memorial service will be held. Kathy wanted friends and family to remember her full of life, and not be remembered by her death. In Lieu of flowers, please help someone in need.
