I was so shocked to hear of your passing my friend.. I enjoyed all of our conversations of your life and the stories of your family.. You had a heart of Gold, and I am so glad I got to you know you. I know you will be watching over everyone through those bright stars at night. I’m a firm believer the stars are our loved ones watching over us.. Until we meet again Fly High My Friend spread those beautiful wings.. ?❤️?

Dear Charlie and family, We were shocked this morning at Mass to hear about Kathleen’s death last Sunday. We tried to call when we got home but all the numbers we could find were either not yours or are out of service. Be assured of our prayer for Kathleen and for each of you. Ironically, we were at 9AM Mass yesterday (Saturday) and as we left the hearse from Storke was outside and we wondered aloud, “who died?” Further, we wondered where the Storke Funeral Home was from as we had never heard of it! Sorry that we also missed the wake. If we had known we would have tried to have been there. If there is anyway we can assist any of you with prayer please do not hesitate to call us. In Him, Walter and Claire

Kathleen I will miss your phone calls so much. As sisters, we had some wonderful laughs throughout our lives. I know you are with Mommy, Daddy and God. You will always be in my heart.

I am so sorry to hear this sad news. Kathleen was a lovely person, and i enjoyed knowing and seeing her over the past 20 years, when she would bring in her children and grandchildren to the office. We bonded together as fellow New Yorkers! She was indeed devoted to her family, and never spoke of her own health problems. So glad to have known her and so sorry for the Amato family at this time.

November 1, 1983, was the Happiest day of my life because you answered yes when I asked you to marry me. You gave me the gift of beautiful children , grandchildren and great grandchildren. The love you gave to our family is far greater than any gift, you will be missed for the remaining days of my life. My heart and the hearts of your family are eternally broken, but we all know that God has granted you peace. We will stay close as a family and celebrate your amazing life and all the love gave to us all.
