Kathy and I were in 4-H together, spent lots of time at each others homes, did a presentation together, many camps, and hung out with her cousin Barb. Besides 4-H and all the school functions, clubs (FTA, Spanish Club, etc.) and school parties - there are so many memories. Even though she was in Garner in the summers, we didn't get together as often as we had hoped and kept saying we need to get our class together more. We all had so much fun at the Class Reunion and her sharing her pictures. She loved scrapbooking!! Time just goes so fast, and we never did get together with cousin Barb for a girls' night out yet - but we had fun talking about it. She had a great positive attitude, and seeing her pictures from school I can see she was loved by all and was great at what she did!!
