Kathy was an avid gardener. In recent years, prior to her diagnosis with Alzheimer’s, she was a member of the Garden Club in Hingham and enjoyed it very much. She graduated from Holy Trinity High School in Roxbury and received her nursing degree from Labouré College in Dorchester. She worked for years as an RN, most notably at the Hingham Visiting Nurses Association. Later, Kathy proudly worked at the New England Friends Home providing assistance to many of its residents.

Kathy and Bill enjoyed traveling all over Europe, but were also perfectly content to vacation on Still Water Pond in Chatham. Kathy adored her family and friends. She was a kind and gentle soul who was extremely generous to all of those around her. She will be greatly missed by all who have had the pleasure of her company.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Kathy may be made to Pat Roche Hospice Home, 86 Turkey Hill Lane, Hingham, MA 02043.
