    Dear Gerry & Family,

    May your precious memories of Kathy and God’s love comfort you and bring you peace during this difficult time.

    Our deepest gratitude to Kathy for her beautiful and loving prayerful efforts in bringing expectant mothers and their innocent unborn babies, in need of special prayers and spiritual guidance, to the forefront, as Founder of “Children of the Rosary” – most assuredly an admirable life-saving, life-time achievement and beyond!

    With heartfelt admiration, thoughts and prayers,

    Joe & Jinny Perron, Founders
