  26. Amanda & Yvonne

    My thoughts and prayers go out to Kathleen and her family! She was actually my downstairs neighbor for quite some time and after awhile got to know how great a wonderful lady she truly was. Enjoyed going down to be there and help her out when was needed. Was very saddened to her about her loss. She will be missed by many.

  27. Brian Wentzell

    My deepest condolences to the many who mourn the loss of Kathleen. What a long and full life she lived. I recent years I have had several good conversations with Katheleen in Liverpool and found her engaging and active (bowling).I shared with her that I was her “real son Glen” as we had been switched at birth by the Liverpool hospital staff by mistake. My mother told me this once and I believed her. She was also Mrs Earle Wentzell of Beach Meadows and both gave birth on April 7, 1951 to two baby boys by Earl(e) Wentzell. So Glen, if you ever want to regain your real “birth right”, it is never too late! Reach out to me.
    Hers was a great life lived and celebrated. My prayers are for Peace Eternal and a great Moms well earned Rest.
    Brian Wentzell
