Our deepest sympathy and condolences to the family. We planned to attend Kathy's homegoing service but had an out-of-town emergency come up. Kathy was one of a kind and always had an encouraging word for you even when you knew she wasn't feeling her best. Thank God, she didn't walk by feelings but by faith. She sowed into our lives in many ways and although we hadn't seen her much in recent years, we were blessed to call her friend. She loved my mother's home-made pimento cheese and told us funny stories about all the different things she dipped it with. Kathy was a warrior in many ways...spiritually and especially physically. We will miss her. Chris and Tracy
I offer my sympathy to the family. The most cherished recollections I have of my sister in Christ are from the time when she resided near First Bible church. Kathy and her deceased spouse Mike kindly welcomed us to their home for dinner. Our gatherings were enjoyable as Kathy had a way of bringing laughter to the table. While Kathy will be deeply missed, I believe she is now celebrating, singing, dancing, and rejoicing in the presence of the Almighty. Rest peacefully, my lovely soul, until we reunite on that glorious day.
My Heartfelt Prayers & Condolences to the Family. During this difficult time, may you find comfort in the memories shared, strength in the love of those around you, and know that the Beautiful memories of our Sister Kathy Wrencher will forever live on in our hearts.
Blessings to Kathy & family. I knew her through her Sister Marilyn, my college sister/friend of 50+ years. Love is Love, when you know that much.πππ
