Allan,
I came to know both you and Kathy as very good friends and very much enjoyed the short time that I knew Kathy. Please know that both of you are in my thoughts and prayers. I feel for you, brother. I pray God will be watching over Kathy, just like she and Mary will be watching over you and me while we play with our tractors. Cherish the memories that you have of her, and treasure them in your heart. Blessed be God who knows all things and has reasons for everything. My heartfelt sympathy for you, bud. You know how much I too feel your pain and suffering.
