    Other Events:

    • Medical Condition: Downs syndrome
    • Residence: Manassas, VA

    Notes:

    Medical Condition:
    "Kathy," born a Down-Syndrome victim, never achieved verbalization skills, but communicated her love of and from God to all with whom she came in contact, by her pleasant way and sweet smile. Her spontaneous extension of her hand for a warm handshake was another of her ways of giving a blessing. These characteristics are well remembered by any whose lives were ever touched by her.

    By a special action of the congregation of the Washington, D.C., Seventh Day Baptist Church (where Kathy's mother was a member and where the family attended during Kathy's lifetime,) approved Communion be given to her at regular communion times. This represents the closest she came to being a "member of the church"; yet no one questions that her passing leaves an immeasurable void and deep sadness among the membership there.
