Life lessons I learned from watching my Aunt Kate: 1. Always leave the carport door open because you never know who may need “some lovin'”2. A jar of Ragu can be spiced up and watered down in order to feed the masses that show up at that unlocked door. 3. There is ALWAYS room for one more at the table. 4. Laughter is contagious and makes everyone feel safe. 5. A can of mushroom soup is a kitchen staple. 6. Be the person to stay and care for loved ones because true blessings come when no one is watching. 7. Stay up all night to watch a Magnolia blossom open. 8. Take the initiative to learn something on your own. 9. Keep God at the center of everything. 10. Love, Love LOVE and then LOVE some more!

I worked with Kate for almost 20 years. As a young person just starting life in the business world, she taught me so many things. One of the first was how to make coffee. I know she will be missed so much by all her family and friends, but I also am positive she is in a beautiful place as her journey on this earth has ended. My prayers are with you.

I barely knew Katie, but through her daughter Diana, I knew how much she was loved. My heart is breaking for Diana and the rest of their family as they navigate these difficult days, weeks, and months ahead without their mom, grandmother, great-grandmother, and wife. I’m sending love and prayers to all of them for the loss of Katie.
