I've told people in my family who flat-out refuse to read my stories that the very best of me is in those books and that they can't really know me if they don't read them. (They apparently don't care.) But my point here is that we have that part of Kathleen still, and that's something to be grateful for. <br /><br />Hi, Debbie — I can't recommend her books highly enough. She was a fantastic storyteller and superbly gifted author.<br /><br />Hi, Lucy — Her friends and family were blindsided by this. It must be so hard to cope with that kind of loss, especially near the holidays.<br /><br />Hi, Mary G — She was very kind and very funny. I've seen some of the albums people are posting on Facebook, and the photos speak volumes. <br /><br />Hi, Jenn — You are so right! I'm glad you're going to blog about it.Pamela Clarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09308504469372100650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38836389.post-68813224616089686792010-01-04T18:40:56.805-07:002010-01-04T18:40:56.805-07:00OH my goodness I can't believe this horrible n...OH my goodness I can't believe this horrible news. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends. She will be sorely missed.

And you're right about that element of having lots of online friends — we come to care very much for those people, and when something happens in their lives, it means as much as if they were our next door neighbors. We do have Kathleen's novels to remember her by. It's sad that there won't be more.<br /><br />And thanks. I appreciate you stopping by to share your thoughts on this.Pamela Clarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09308504469372100650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38836389.post-53296228713720481232010-01-03T22:33:12.814-07:002010-01-03T22:33:12.814-07:00Oh Pamela, this is so sad!

My interest perked up a while back about her book "On a Highland Shore," and I'm so sorry she's passed on so suddenly!:( This is one of my fears as I communicate on-line so often. When someone I've chatted with is gone abruptly . . . it's no less devastating in a friendship or bonding way!! You and Kathleen's family have all my heartfelt sympathies. I'm so glad she left her legacy in writing -- a special gift to the world as only writers can express forever and ever! <br />K.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
