Dear Gavin, Brien, Patrick and Terence,
I have such fond memories of spending time with Kathy and your father in Ireland and when I visited New York in the 90's.
She was such a kind, warm, welcoming person and will be missed. You are in my thoughts.

I first met Kathy in 2011. Kathy was kind and always made me feel welcome. She was also very intelligent and had a great sense of humor and realness to her. I can't believe she is gone. Too soon. Thinking of all the boys and the family. Love you Kathy. My prayers and thoughts are with you.

Q: What was one of your favorite qualities of Kathy?
A: Kathy was always patient and kind. I met her in 2015, at Commack Road Elementary School. She took me under her wing and always took the time to show me something new. She loved her students and they loved her. We had a great time teaching AIS together and often joked how well we could teach "regrouping" by doing one of our skits. We got together occasionally and I enjoyed hearing about all of the wonderful things about her children, daughters-in law, and grandchildren were up to . She was so proud of all of you. I will miss her.

Gavin, Brien, Patrick and Terry, your mom was such a special woman. She had such a warm smile and whenever she spoke of her sons or her grandchildren she glowed with love and pride. She'll be missed by all who knew her.
