Dear Don, Mary and family, Thinking of you at this difficult time. Talented, bright, fun-loving Kathy will live in our memories. She was such a good friend to the Lake View Historical Museum. And, the University of Iowa Scottish Highlander display, Kathy so generously provided, will continue to be a visitor favorite. Kathy was a great gal! We will miss her.

Don,
I was very saddened to read of Kathryn's passing. While my time spent with you both was brief, I realized quickly how fortunate you were to have her in your life. Feel blessed for the time and experiences you shared with her. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. May GOD watch over and strengthen you in this most difficult time.

We are very sad to hear that Kathy passed into the hands of the Almighty. Although we haven't been in contact lately, we were happy to remember our special occasions together and we enjoyed translating the many letters when Kathy was trying to research her roots in Mecklenburg, Germany, so many years ago. May she now rest in peace and may you, Don and family, celebrate her life even as you mourn her death.
Please accept our sincere condolences.
Johann and Ursel

Dear Don and Family,

I have good memories of talking to Kathy at choir practice. She had good stories and memories of boating experiences. I know you miss her and hope this feeling will soon be replaced with your good memories of Kathy.
