Kathleen was a good friend and neighbor. I know she grew so tried of waiting her turn to leave this earth. So I am glad for her the time arrived. She told me one time she didn’t know why she was still here she had done out lived all her friends. I said thanks a lot. What am I chopped liver. So we got a good laugh out of that. Thank you to all that were so good to my friend in her last days. I will miss her

What a loss - prayers and thoughts for the family. My brother (Ben Ninmann) and I owe our very existence to Kathleen. In the early 1940s, Kathleen wrote in response to a pen pal ad and as the letters came in she would share them with her distant cousin and good friend Veda, who took an interest in a letter from Frank. Kathleen gave the letter to her. Veda and Frank wrote back and forth and eventually met, were engaged for about six years as WWII intervened, then married. If it hadn't been for Kathleen, none of that would have happened.
