Will always remember Kathy. She gave us one of our four legged babies years ago, Possum. So glad to have known her. RIP and hope she’s surrounded by all her fur babies!
Tails, my Night Owl Sis, was one of the few female bikers who like me, road hard hitting with passion. She also had a big heart and tons of strength. She had integrity and fought hard through any opposition for what she believed in. One of her last proudest moments was when she received full colors from her club, Boot Hill Night Owls MC. I will truly miss her and I’m grateful for the time I did have with her.
So Tails, ride free on the other side of that Bridge you crossed when you were called “Homeâ€. I’ll see you when the day comes when I return “Home†but in the meanwhile, I know you’ll be with the rest of my guardian angels keeping me safe until then.
Love you forever Sis! â¤ï¸ Full Throttle, Linda Warden-Michl, O.O.A.O
30 years ago she showed up at Delta Vo-Tech wanting to be a paramedic. I could tell by her demeanor that she would hold her own. She excelled in class but Kathy shined in the clinical area. She was a people person. She showed that in her teaching.
Last call Paramedic Aronald! We'll take it from here.
God bless your family and give them peace.
You were my pirate sister and dearest friend, it is hard to remember a time before I met you. I loved being part of your flock and enjoyed every event we did together. The world will be a little quieter now, but will work to continue the your program to educate about birds in rescue.
I was shocked and saddened to learn of Kathy's passing. We were good friends in Jr. High school. Many sleepovers at her house where we listened to Peter Frampton and The Beatles Sgt. Pepper's Loney Hearts Club albums. She loved horses and had the most beautiful long flaming red hair. She was a free spirit who drove us around Osceola on the weekends listening to Bob Segar on 8 Track tapes in her car. She drove by herself to Albuquerque to visit her Mom when she was barely 16, I always admired her for that.
Kathy...you were a good friend, you will be missed immensely!
Prayers for Robbie and her Family.
Friends by chance, family by choice! You will be greatly missed by our family and flock. Love you Sisâ¤ï¸ Ride free until we meet again.
This came as a huge shock to us both. Fly high with full wind in your sails. You will be greatly missed by us and many.
With deep sympathy and sincere condolences From Night Owl MC/SC Okolona Chapter
This came as a big shock to me. I was really good friends with Kathy in Jr High and had just found a picture of her in my photo book over the weekend and thought about how long it had been since I had seen and talked to her. I had no ideal that she had passed. She was a good friend and she had a big heart and loved everyone she came into contact with. I have the most fond memories of her.
Sending prayers and comfort from my family to Kathy's family.
Rest in peace.
I hope to live my life as brilliantly as you. Fair Winds on your next journey
Love you sis!
Fly high my friend and classmate
