Katherine was an avid gardener, her garden was her sanctuary where she would spend endless hours weeding and picking a bountiful amount of vegetables. You would not leave Katherine's house empty-handed, she would send you home with a bag full of vegetables, especially those delicious N.J. tomatoes. She loved bowling with John, playing bingo, playing slot machines at casino, and late night poker on computer. She especially loved the annual trip she would take with her family where many cherished memories were made. Most of all Katherine loved her family, she will be deeply missed and forever in our hearts. May the road rise up to meet you, May the wind be ever at your back May the sun shine warm upon your face And the rain fall softly on your fields And until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of his hand.
