I was just going over the newspapers and saw Kitty's Obit. I was down a t duck that week and I just got around to the newspapers. I lost my wife over 3 months ago so you have my heart felt sympathy. You had your wife for over 50 years and our 50 was in June this year. You are feeling a great loss that only time can lesson. Give me a call if you would like to talk.

Billy, and family,
My deepest sympathy on Kitty's passing. Her smile could light up a room. It was a privilege to know her at NASA.

Kitty was a valued member of the branches that I headed during her last 4 years at NASA. She was instrumental in establishing the credibility of a then novel, but now widespread, technique for the aerodynamic optimization of aircraft, and she had primary responsibility for the branch's web page (back when the web was just a few years old). My condolences to the Haigler family on Kitty's passing

Aunt Kitty lives is such a special place in my heart. She was a profoundly kind and intelligent woman and the sound of her laugh is something I'll never forget. I can picture her smile, standing in the midst of her sisters at grandmother's house in High Point while all the amazing Thanksgiving foods were being heated on the stove. I'm sure she was shooing us kids off to play ping-pong in the basement, but we'd hear her bless our meal soon. What a blessing to have called her my aunt. My prayers are with you, Uncle Billy, Kathryn, William, all the Tkacs and Haiglers, Aunt Brenda, Aunt Sandy, Uncle Steve and of course, Mom. It's a great comfort to me that Aunt Kitty was able to join God in eternity.

Uncle Billy and family - I take comfort this week in knowing that Aunt Kitty is now in a place of eternal rest, well and strong and with relatives whom have gone before. I will be with you all at the funeral, but in spirit, thinking and praying for God's comfort to rest upon each of you.
