Kathy had the ability to make instant friends with everyone she met. She never met a stranger and made everyone feel as though they’d known her for years. She was an amazing mom and grandmother, to more than just her own family. She truly would light up every room she entered. To say she will missed would be an understatement. We will do our very best to keep that light shining and keep her memory alive. Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment, until it becomes a memory, so please tell the ones in your life you love them and make every moment count.
Visitation will be held Monday, July 22, 2024, from 5-8 pm, with services at 8pm in the
Jones Kenney Zechman Funeral Home, 1002 E High Street, Springfield, OH 45505.
