January 19, 2023 at 7:03 pmToday, I was saddened to learn of Kathleen‘s passing. Kathleen and her husband: Martin (d. 2011) were instrumental in helping some of us find God’s Spirit again in our inner being. I’m most grateful for that and pray Kathleen and Martin are resting comfortably together in Heaven in God’s care. My condolences to the family…I had the opportunity to meet Kathleen and Marty’s children when they were very young. GodSpeed!…Roy
