Kathy was known by her friends by the nickname "Lamb" for her compassionate and caring nature.

During her life, she served as a manager for Sherwin Williams for ten years, while operating the Auto Doctor in Gambrills where they served the local community for over forty years.

Kathy was an avid volunteer for local law enforcement, tracking statistics and aiding the detectives of the Anne Arundel County Police Department, Western District, where she was later honored as an Honorary Detective.
