Death leaves a heartache
no one can heal;
Love leaves a memory
no one can steal.
Deepest sympathy for your loss.

Just decided to pick up a Sunday State Journal and was surprised and saddened when I saw Kathy's name. My deepest sympathy to Phil, Phil and Kathy's sons, and the rest of the family.
I sort of worked with Kathy and Phil...was an usher at their wedding. Since I retired to the northwoods, I haven't seen Kathy and Phil for quite a few years. Kathy will be missed by many...

I, too, was surprised to see Kathy's name in the Sunday obituaries.... I had hoped that she and Phil would have many years of enjoyment in her retirement years! Kathy was a solid beacon for me while at Covance, and her spirit carried us through some challenging times. She will be remembered and missed by many. My thoughts and prayers to Phil and the family.
