Kitty, as long as I knew you, you always met lifes challenges and traveled your spiritual path with a passion and determination that had to be admired. I hear you saying, "this was not the way I planned things, but with family and friends WE will make this work". Our connection was your love and knowledge of rocks, stones and crystals. So know that as I speak to mine, it will always be with love and thoughts of you. Thank you for the times you shared with us.

Kitty was my aunt and truly a wonderful person. Her beliefs and unparalled spiritualism were above and beyond the realm of the "norm". She taught me so very many things about my own inner power and abilities and energy. SHe showed me how to replace negative energy with positive and that my friends is an invaluable lesson to be learned. I was blessed and honored with having Kitty do my wedding ceremonies for me and it was a truly wonderful gift. The amazing thing is that the very day Kitty was struck by the storm I had showed my wedding video to a friend and Kitty was in my thoughts and prayers that day. Thanks to modern technology I will always have that video of Kitty in her prime. Very little meant more to Kitty than her spiritualism and she believed sooo deeply. I had the opportunity to share in a few experiences with her like drumming circles. Not everyone believes the same things but Kitty's beliefs and strength taught me to believe again. Our family, including her spiritual family, were have suffered a loss that will be hard to overcome. One day though we will all know that Kitty is shining down on us and helping us in everyway she can. She truly is a strong spirit and will be greatly missed. Her oldest children LeAnn and Shannon need to be kept in our thoughts and prayers as well.
Love and Prayers,

I was so overwhelmed with sadness when I saw Kitty's name on the news. My heart goes out to Dallas and Lee and my prayers are with them. Kitty was a unique spirit - I enjoyed our times together and learned so much from her. We had "special conversations" about the joys and the pains of hitting our "middle years" and lots of laughs and sometimes tears. We shared a love of animals and the spiritual connection to them. We shared our stories - which helped me through some rough spots.
I know she's going to be watching over us all and when we goof up - "the look" will still be there! Kitty – you were an inspiration and I will remember you fondly and with love.
(and I will be watching for the foxes and owls)

Kitty was my friend, a spiritual over achiever just like me. She was always wanting to learn something new and always thinking about the next thing. I remember her sitting in my healing chair and I couldn't help but feel what was happening, I said "Kitty, your healing me back!" and she smiled and said "I know". She liked it that way. She couldn't take healing energy without giving it back at the same time.
She left this world in a whirlwind, just like other great spiritual teachers have in the past. She will be missed greatly.
I remember many experiences that I have shared with Kitty, deep things that we could only share with each other, and I know that she is watching over us all and we will be hearing from her often.
She was a force to be reckoned with in this world and will be in the next. She will live on in our hearts, memories and circles for years to come.
Thank you Kitty for all you have blessed us with.
Your friend forever,
Laura Coffey
Ron, my heart goes out not only to Lee and Dallas and the rest of Kitty's personal family, but also to all of you who are her spiritual family. I know your hearts are heavy, but the one thing we all know as followers of spiritualism is that she is not very far away, and will always be with you all. I've missed all of you so much the past two years, and I will miss her now even more.
Love to all of you,
Bonnie Smith
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. I am sending hugs of love for everyone. May all your sadness be turned to the things of Joy, and happiness, that our Dear Kitty loved. Now she is with Carolyn and other angels up above. May your eyes that cry, look to the sky, and see that the sun will shine again. And we shall remember all the good times we have had, till we meet again my dear friends. Love to you Ron and all, may you stand tall, knowing you all, were there, to share. Because we all love and cared for Kitty. I send my love for you to heal. Knowing that my love to you, is very real.
Sincerely, Vicki Adams
As I sit here in my favorite chair, I am surrounded by spheres, stones and crystals. I got my first sphere from Kitty and now have a large collection of them. Kitty was excited and extremely knowledgeable about the mineral world and her enthusiasm was catching. I will forever be grateful to Kitty for the sharing of info, as well as her generosity. At my feet there is a most unusual stone formation given to me by Kitty. She found it one day on one of her many excursions and immediately thought of me. I remember the excitement with which she presented it.
Of all my spheres, Johnnie's favorite one is that first one I got from Kitty. It always goes with us in the motorhome and sits on the table in front of him.
Kitty will be greatly missed by both of us.
Lovingly, Billy and Johnnie
Bob and I are deviated to hear of Kitty's passing and the serious injuries to Lee and Dallas. Kitty has been an integral part of Bob's healing-(as are ALL of you)-and we will miss her dearly. Our prayers, hugs, and tears go out to Lee and Dallas and to all of you who loved Kitty too. As for me, I see Kitty in the arms of The Great Spirit dancing in those brilliant Kansas stars.
My love to all of you,
Chris Gabrielson
Kitty was definitely one of a kind, a wonderful friend to anyone who accepted her into their life. I, we, are very blessed that spirit allowed Kitty to be with us for the time that she was on this plane. I know that you will find all your answers dear friend and share them with us if you can.
Love, Blessings and Safe Journey Home Kitty.

Kitty is someone with a love of talking and sharing. Most of all I will remember the "look" she could give and anybody that knows Kitty will know the look I am talking about. That look could send one into laughter or make you really think about what was being said. Kitty, enjoy your journey and know that we will think of you from time to time. All of us are better for knowing you and having shared in this path of life with you.

I was totally shocked to hear the news about Kitty. I heard about the tornado in Bennington and thought about her. I have only met her on, I believe 2 occasions; once at a sweat lodge and the other at a drumming circle. She was kind and friendly to me and very sincere. My heart goes out to her kin.
Love and Light

The dew, sticky with midnight sweetness, disappears in the gentle morning breeze. The sun rises, bringing the promise of continued life.
Another miracle of glorious transformation - touched by the Great Spirit’s hand.
The caterpillar emerges from its cocoon, shakes itself free, and begins its new adventure – a butterfly with limitless options.
With a sense of knowing, it begins a new journey; trusting in the divine whispers; floating effortlessly in the current of the breeze; surrendering to natures will.
The rays of heaven’s light guide this gentle soul to its welcoming arms. The breeze nudges while the light urges, and this beautiful soul is called home.
Yet another miraculous transformation begins; from the physical to the ethereal; the great journey of ascension - guided by the Great Spirit’s hand.
Another great quest is before you, my friend. Blessings on your journey.
