"I had the pleasure of seeing Kathy speak at an event.  I was astounded at how engaging she was.  Given Kathy has such an emotional story, her composure and delivery of her message was incredible.  There was not a dry eye in the house, I wish nothing but the best for Kathy and the Foundation moving forward".
