Thank you for sharing your wonderful memories with us.

After her niece’s husband passed of cancer a few years back, she moved in with Kate and became a regular caretaker for her. At 99, Aunt Kate was able to pass away at home.

Aunt Kate was so amazing & when I think about my book I am publishing, I am sad she isn't here to see it happen. I know she would've been so proud.

That's utterly wonderful. It's what my brother and I are planning to do for our parents (both in their 80s).That is a wonderful commitment you & your brother are making. I hope you are able to, as it is the way anyone should go ( ... )

Thank you. <3 Aunt Kate was amazing. She defied conventions at a time when that was so taboo. And she never lost her freedom. And for that, in and of itself, I admire her.

Thank you, she truly was. <3 We knew the end was coming. Physically she wasn't doing too bad, but her mind was going, she was getting more & more confused. She never would have wanted to remain, if her mind was not, tbh.
