I was so sorry to learn of the death of my cousin Kathy. I know she will be so missed by her family and especially her twin sister, Karen. In our growing up years, we used to "meet up" at Grandma Sisk's home in Beckley. We had a lot of good chats and much fun. Kathy was one to always speak her mind. She was always opinionated and strong willed. Even through all her illnesses, she accomplished much in her life. She is at peace now and with her dad, Grandma and all her other relatives. Sincerely and with love, Terry Sisk
