Vickie Hessefort’I worked with Kathy as a fellow secretary at another elementary school for several years also when she was at Frank and at Curtis Strange. She was a very kind and thoughtful person. I truly enjoyed our telephone conversations and working together. She always had the students best interest in mind. So sorry for your families loss.
