Our sincere condolences. Dan is Mike’s cousin. We loved going to the farm to visit Mike and Kathy. She would always cook up peas, fried okra, cornbread, and fresh rip tomatoes from her garden. She and Mike will be greatly missed.

My family and I are all so very sorry to hear about the loss of our cousin Kathy. She was actually a cousin by marriage, but was part of our family. She had a wonderful, generous spirit and will be greatly missed.
If you haven’t found a home yet for her dog Prissy, please let me know. I would be interested in taking her.
Much love and sympathy to you all.
