Pat and I were so saddened to hear about the passing of such an amazing woman, we have known Kathy and Henri since the early 80s, she was such a loving mother and devoted wife to her husband Henri Gravelle.
We will miss our get togethers over lunch she always had such a beautiful smile and always greeted us in such a welcoming manner, Kathy loved to cook and every Christmas she would have a tortière for our family to enjoy as a family for Christmas, she also loved going back to Halifax every year to see her family.
Our condolences go out to Henri, children, grandkids and all of her family members

I wish to convey my sincere condolences to you and family regarding your mother’s passing. An extended time in hospital and you were there for her daily for weeks. You did everything a son could possibly do for your mom and she knew you were with her even if, at times it did not appear so. I remember how fondly you spoke of her daily on the Canal, a great lady.. Yes,”she is on your bike each and every day”
