    No words can describe what Kathy has meant to our family and also to me personally. Kathy has worked for our family business for over 35 years and I have known her since I was seven years old. I first met Kathy on one of my trips up to visit my father when she worked at North American For my dad in Altoona Pennsylvania. At that point I had no idea what in Altoona Pennsylvania was, but I was soon to know that it was a special place filled with special people like Kathy. Since that time, Kathy has signed birthday cards for me from my father, of course lol she always gave me a heads up when it was the right time or the wrong time to talk to my father because yes, she knew us that well she was more than the operations manager for our pest control family service, she was a matriarch for us. Every time we told her she can slow down or retire and she didn't have to do this anymore. Kathy would say what am I gonna do sit around and knit. It couldn't be dealing with my father and I that kept her going. It just had to be the true dedication that she had, which is the same dedication that I know that she had to her family and her community in her faith. Words cannot explain the loss that we will feel not only in our company but our hearts. Kathy knew more about us. Then we knew about each other in our family. I can see her right now up in heaven looking down on my father and I saying "Alright boys, what are you going to now. Miss me yet" 😊. Kathy thank you just doesn't seem to be enough from all of the Fishon Family because what you have given us can never be replaced. We are just thankful to your family for sharing you with us. May God bless you with your relaxation you deserve in heaven and a guardian angel for your family. We will forever love you. Arnie, Barbara, & all the names you've called me Eric (jr, prince, Eman, Xtermigator)

    My nephew attended JMC pre-school with Kathy's sons in the late 1970s. My mother, who cared for my nephew, enjoyed crossing paths with her in that venue. I had the privilege of working with Kathy at Modern Communications Corp office during that time frame. It was owned by the Seltzer Family and Kathy was certainly an asset to that operation, as well as dedicated. I am encouraged that she became the grandmother of five children in later life and I extend my deepest sympathy to her family.

    What a shock and loss to everyone who knew her. I am so sorry that I am in Florida and won't be able to offer my condolences in person. She was the heart of the ACHS class of 1960 reunion committee. My prayers go out for her and her family. Joe Stevens
