A beautiful photo of my lovely Aunt Kitty. We will miss you.
Growing up in Westwood Kitty was a staple in our lives and and on the hill. Our Mom could not have had better friends than Kitty and the Ruths. All were so fortunate to move to a new neighborhood as young wifes having babies and making lifelong friends. Good times and a life full of memories shared with our folks and Kitty, Ted and Betty. Especially those New Year’s Eve parties! A life we are so lucky and grateful to have been a part of. Such a lovely photo and how we always picture Kitty, one classy lady. Much love for all who were touched by such a wonderful woman.
