"So sorry for the loss of your Mother and Grandmother. Kathy and I were neighbors as little girls, living across the street from each other in Mount Ayr. We used to jump rope and play with the other girls in the neighborhood. Kathy and I attended school together and graduated together. I lost touch with her after graduation, but worked with her Mother for many years, so kept up on her and her children from Margaret. Prayers for your family. Jeannette Lutrick"
In loving memory of
Kathy Jackson
