  1. Annalise, Christina, and Joey, I am so sorry for your loss. Your mom was the most caring, compassionate, funny, charismatic, loving, and impossibly generous person ever! She had a larger-than-life personality but somehow had the gift of making everyone she talked to feel like they were the most important person in the world. She was *always* good to me and I could not have asked for a better aunt. She will be sorely missed. Much love <3

  2. Kathy, my dear friend and neighbor. You will be missed dearly. Your love of family and animals will live on! Carolyn B

  3. Dear Gardino family, I am so sorry for your Great Loss of Kathy. She was a kind hearted soul who would do anything for an animal in need! She was a wonderful kind neighbor, whom we considered family, after living for over 35 yrs in our cul-de-sac of 4 homes. Rest in Eternal Peace, and God please watch over her family now and forever. 🐾🐾

  4. Joe, Annalise, Christina, and Joey,

    So sorry for your loss. I will always remember her gracious and kind nature. I always looked forward to seeing her at family gatherings or down in Florida when I was visiting. She made me feel very welcome. Take care of yourselves.
