Mary Kratzmeyer

     As famous for her bright blue eyes as she was for her chocolate chip cookies, Kathleen made every room brighter by being in it. Her laughter was quick and infectious, and she never knew a stranger. Kathleen’s greatest wish was to be a mother, and her love for her children was fierce and unparalleled. Her memory is a blessing to all who knew her.
