Dale I have too many memories to post, but you were my favorite childhood playmate. You always called me Little Kathie even though i am a year older than you. I remember building forts under the pool table, learning to Swim in your parents’ pool, racing cars down the wooden hllway at the house on Central, going trick or treating with you and Mike. Playing with all the boys toys in your room since all I had was dolls and stuffed animals and dishes. Racing our bikes and plying kickball, going to church and learning football from Uncle Jack. You always were laughing and teasing me, but never in a cruel way. You looked out for me in high school, making sure no one hurt me and always making me laugh. I’ll miss you!
