We were in Alabama with the William Woods Owls. Granddaughter Nicole was playing. We were a family of divorce but all got along very well and to save expenses did a lot of traveling together. It was late on night after a game we stopped at Wendy’s to get something to eat...like 1:30 am. The young man at the window asked Merold how he was so lucky to have three women with him. Merold replied this is my wife. This is my ex-wife and that is my ex-mother-in-law. The excited young man Holland to all the guys cooking to come see....nanny always brought this up when we were together & we all laughed every time!!! She loved her softball and a memory for good laughs.

For the time that I worked at Brooke Cherith Kathy was my favorite person to go see as soon as I got there. Every time I would walk into her room she would give me a smile and we would sit there for a little while watching Judge Judy and she would always ask me if I wanted a piece of chocolate from her stash. I will always cherish those memories and all the times my mom would come home and tell me that Kathy would always say I was an angel in her eyes. Kathy was so proud of me when I told her I got a job at Arby’s and made sure to tell me to come back and visit.

My favorite memory is that she was a second Momma to our daughter Rosalyn who was great friends with Roxanne!  They spent so many nights together, sometimes alone as Kathy would be at work......they had lots of fun and I never worried.  I always loved our conversations when picking up Roz.  She was always so kind and so happy.  I will not make the services as I have a broken ankle, and hate that, but you all will be in my thoughts and prayers!  Hugs and love to you all! ♥️♥️🙏🏻😘.

“My gals a corker, she’s a New Yorker....”. One of my favorite memories is swinging on Nanny’s front porch, singing this song with her. ❤️

I’m writing this on behalf of myself and my son, Brian Sears.  When I told him Kathy had passed, he relayed how he always enjoyed working for her at Wal-Mart when he was in high school.  He said she always treated him well.  As a young girl, I always was impressed with her athleticism.  She continued playing softball for many years.  Now that I’ve been an adult for 45 years, I’m even more impressed.  She had a terrific smile.  May she Rest In Peace.   ....Terry Summers Wollersheim

Kathy was one of my first bosses at Walmart as a teenager. To this day she has been my favorite. I was recently asked in an interview what makes a good supervisor. I told them about Kathy and her positive attitude and how she was someone you wanted to do a good job for. (Believe it or not she could still be tough when needed.) Walmart used to close back then and we would clean and put things away. I remember loving to see her laugh and smile. One night I remember draping a dress over me while riding a bicycle down the aisle to go put them away. I can still hear her laughing at me. Somehow cleaning up the store seemed quicker and way more fun when she was the closing manager. Truly a lovely lady and God certainly has a couple of good ones with she and Margie(My favorite teacher's aide from Kindergarten).

I have many fond memories of Kathy.  My favorite is being at her house with my friends, one of whom lived across the street.  We were over there a lot, and always felt welcomed.  It was my first introduction to homemade chocolate chip cookies.  Kathy always had a big bowl of that dough in her refrigerator!  I continued that tradition with my boys, and now my grandchildren❣️

Years ago both of our families went on a float trip together. Somehow, Kathy and Margie (her sister) ended up in the same canoe. They pushed off, straightened up and just got going when they dumped in about a foot and a half of water. You could hear Kathy pretty far down the river! (Side note: This was when I realized Nicole had her eye on my son, Nathan.) Lots of memories . . . lots of love!

Tiffany Lunsford I remember as a little girl Kathy was working at city hall in Huntsville taking the money for water bills. Her smile every time I went in there with my parents made my day special. When I was working at the Brook Cherith Assisted Living as CMA, I would go into her room and she would be sitting in her recliner watching MU basketball, football, the St.Louis Cardinal or softball games and sit watch with her. If sports wasn't on she and I would be watching dance with the stars. She always loved it when I came to room during the evening so we could talk about what the Lord was doing, or what we could be praying for or talk about stories of our families. Her smiling face each and every day got me through the hardest time in my life. Definitely hold those moments I shared with her close to my heart Definitely loved it when her family came to visit as well because she really enjoyed spending time with them. Kathy will be truly missed
