Kathleen was a kind and gentle soul who filled every room with her infectious smile and quiet strength. She found true joy in spending time with her family, especially at cherished gatherings over the holidays. Kathleen’s greatest love was her husband, though her heart overflowed most for her grandchildren, who brought her endless pride and joy. As an avid sports fan, she could often be found rooting passionately for her beloved Phillies and Eagles or cheering on her grandchildren at their own games. Kathleen also had a passion for cruising, finding peace and excitement on the open sea. She delighted in life’s simple pleasures, from Broadway musicals and Irish potatoes to preparing her famous coleslaw and rice pudding for family events. Her warmth, support, and care for those she loved were unmatched, and she brought light and love into the lives of everyone around her. Kathleen’s memory will live on through the beautiful legacy of love and laughter she leaves behind.
