Every time I try to write something here I end up deleting it before I hit "post". Because I keep thinking about what Kate would have to say about it. :) She had strong opinions and would go to the wall for them. She felt the same way about people. She had strong opinions about them, but the ones she liked, she was fiercely loyal and inspired the same from them. She was definitely loved by those of us lucky enough to get to know her, even if it was "just online". She would probably make fun of me if she knew how upset I am about this. But then she would be comforting and say exactly what I needed to hear... and then she'd probably make fun of me again. :) There is a "kathrynrose" sized hole in the universe and we are all less because she is gone... but greater for having the chance to have gotten to know her. Not sure that makes any sense. But she was used to me not making sense. I miss you Kate. - Gary/clauderainsrm
