I just remember meeting Kathryn on the shores of Lake Garda and finding her very bubbly and full of mischief and fun. Then again the following year (1990) when we met up in the Pyrenees and they followed us to Paris, she was always teasing people and had a wicked grin on her face. It seems she stayed that way for the rest of her relatively short life. I was very sad to hear of her passing. Heartfelt condolances to Scott, Poppy,Jean, Bob and Sarah.

Kathryn
I am so saddened we never really got to know each other and even more saddened my brother has lost his soul mate and most of all Poppy has lost her mum. I know you are are dancing with the angels now amongst the stars and Scott and Poppy will always look up to the stars and dance with you. xxxxx
