One of her grandson's told me about her strawberry patch, how she would give them little pails to go pick the berries. When they came back inside she would wash and cut the berries up and sprinkle a little sugar on them. I was born to late to get to know her. I feel like I did know her. I was named Kathryn too. Perhaps kindred spirits. She was Cherokee at least half. She is very much loved and missed even by those that were born later. Her memory lingers still.
