Condolences for


Corey, Jackie, Katie, Tony, and other family members, I was so saddened to hear of the loss of your wife/mother. I have many memories of talks with Kathy when she came to OMS while you were a student in my class, Tony. How she loved you all! I pray that all of your wonderful memories of happy family times will ease the grief that you are now feeling and in time allow you to live lives of great joy. Nothing would make your wife/mom happier. Sending you love and sympathy.

Dear DeGaetano family: I was so sad to hear that Kathy had lost in her battle with cancer. I have known Kathy since before Corey and her were married when I worked at Skemp. She was also a great friend to me as well as my mom Jeanette Young. Then years later I was delighted when Katie and Carrie got to be such good friends. Our thoughts and hearts go out to you all during this very very difficult time. She was a wonderful person and will be truly missed by many. Hugs from the Beitlich's.

I send big hugs to all the people Kassy loved - her family and friends. She will be missed but I know she will be with all of you in spirit with her great smile and fun laugh. She has no more pain and is having fun on the Other Side. I knew Kassy off and on thru grade school, high school somewhat and college. One couldn't help but love her and her great sense of humor.

Dear DeGaetano Family, Our sincere condolences on Kassey's passing. She was such a wonderful part of our extended family. I will never forget the Thanksgivings on Green Bay Street in Onalaska. The food, the bowling, the card games and the chit-chatting in every room. We were blessed to see her three times this summer and two of the events were fun family celebrations which made it extra special. God Bless Aunt Kassey. Dan, Carol, Nick & Joey Desmond

My condolences go out to the entire DeGaetano family. I had the honor to work with her for a couple of years in the Transcription department. She was such a warm and loving person. She always knew how to make you smile. I saw her just a couple of weeks ago and got one last hug, and that moment will be with me forever. She will be greatly missed by everyone that knew her.

I worked with Kathy for over 10 years in the transcription department and shared an office with her for many of those years. Kathy, I always said, was my "at-work mom" and I cannot begin to tell you everything she has taught me about work and, most importantly, about life! She was a very wise, well-respected, fun person and only hope I can be half the person she was. Kathy went through, with me, the many stages of my life and I am very proud to call her a good friend. I am very saddened to hear of her passing. My thoughts and prayers are with Kathy's family, which were the light of her life!! Love, Michelle (Muffy)Spanjers
From Michelle Spanjers

My heartfelt sympathies to the entire DeGaetano family. As I am sure you will hear from everybody who knew Kathy, she was truly a gem. We all loved her and will have so many memories of the great times we had with her (yes, even at work). We will remember all the laughter and stories we shared with her. Kathy was a lady with a great can-do attitude and loving demeanor. All of us who knew and loved her will spend countless times reminiscing and telling stories about her in order to keep the great memories alive. She faced her illness with a dignity that the rest of us can only admire. She will be missed so much by all. Love, Joyce Cartwright
From Joyce Cartwright

I was so saddened to hear that Kathy had passed away. I have known her since I started working at Skemp Clinic in 1978 and have been so blessed to have known her and worked with her over all these years. She was the most wonderful person with the neatest outlook on life. I am so sorry that I can't be with you in person to express my sympathy but our thoughts and prayers are with you from Texas. God bless you all.
