Today, we gather to say our final goodbyes to Kathy McQuillan, a woman whose presence lit up our lives and whose departure leaves a profound emptiness in our hearts. Kathy was a unique, kind, and vibrant spirit—a soul with a heart of gold who touched the lives of everyone fortunate enough to know her. As we lay her to rest, we hope she knows just how deeply she was loved and how much she meant to all of us.

Kathy, you brought joy, laughter, and warmth into every room you entered. From our daily chats on the wall to the Snapchats we shared, you had a way of making everything feel lighter, brighter, and more meaningful. It’s these little moments, these simple things that will be missed the most. Your infectious laughter and your caring nature left an indelible mark on those who loved you.

To your beautiful daughter Leah, and your amazing family—our hearts are with you in this unimaginable time. Kathy’s love will forever surround you, and though she may no longer be physically with us, she will always be with you in spirit, watching over you and guiding you.

Kathy, you were an angel in every sense, and though we must say goodbye now, we will cherish the memories and the love you gave us forever. As you rest in peace, know that your light will continue to shine in our hearts.
