Guestbook

  1. My heart goes out to the Riegel family. Growing up she was always kind to me and welcomed me into their home. She always had a funny story to share! We had a special connection because she and my Dad grew up i the same neighborhood in Chicago. Small world! Prayers for all of you.

  2. Kathy was like my second mother, and she and I had a great bond, starting when I was in the third grade and coming to her house for sleepovers with Shari. Her cookies were the best! I will miss here dearly. Prayers for peace and comfort to Tom and the family.

  3. Tom.. so very sorry to hear of your loss. God bless you and your family during this most difficult time. Tom & Kathy Warriner

  4. I am so sorry for your loss. Prayers. I really loved Kathy. She was a real influence in my years of Sunday’s school. Opened my eyes. I will never forget her.
