    My deepest sympathy to your family. I worked with Kathy at SKF for many years and we had desks next to each other. Kathy was a hard worker and cared about doing a good job. We had many conversations about children,life and so on. I loved her outgoing personality and her enthusiasm for life. She definitely lived it. I always enjoyed running into her after the SKF days. I will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers <3 RIP Kathy !!

    Tommy, Mitch, Maria-

    So sorry to hear of Kathy’s illness and passing.

    A “true Saint” for putting up with the “rock n’ roll” days of garage bands with Mitch and me, and the gang.

    She was a very nice lady and will be missed, most definitely.

    Eternal rest to her.

    Rock, Mitch and Maria,

    My sincerest condolences. Many great memories shared on John Street back in the 80’s. She guided us knuckleheads the best she could during our high school years and personally think she did a wonderful job at it even though she didn’t have too. Her subtle words of wisdom, and reminders of self-awareness were very instrumental to all of us. She will be sadly missed but NEVER forgotten!!!

    See you on the other side, Peace and Love!!

    My condolences to Tom and the
    Rosselli family and friends of Kathy. I worked with Kathy for about 30 years at the Dairy in Arkport NY. She was a special person due to her Ray of Sunshine personality. She was part of the family of girls working in office that supported the plant to keep the Cottage cheese, Sour Cream, and yogurt manufacturing going on to the trucks and down the road. She helped to keep pleasant working conditions. She will be missed.
