Kathy's journey with Parkinson's disease began at the age of 48, a challenge she faced with remarkable resilience for 36 years. Her commitment to her church and community was evident through her long-standing membership and service at Third Reformed Church and her volunteering with the Wedgewood Acres Guild. Kathy expressed her affection and care through the universal language of food, preparing meals that not only nourished but also celebrated the many milestones of her family. Her presence was a constant at the numerous games and events of her children and grandchildren, a testament to her unwavering support and love for her family. Kathy's life, marked by her dedication to faith, family, and community, leaves a legacy of strength and devotion.
