Kathy L. Poucher – June 28, 1990

Kathy was a woman I've had the privilege of knowing for only a few years in my life. I met her through work. The first day we spoke, there was an intense spiritual connection between us and we immediately became friends. I instantly realized that Kathy was one of my spiritual family members. The feeling was too strong to deny. Have you ever met a person for the very first time and were convinced you've known them in another life? That is how I felt about Kathy. I believe we all have a spiritual family, but not necessarily will we have the ability to recognize them while we occupy earth. Since we are sometimes stuck in our own little human world, spiritual family members can easily pass us right by. It's important to slow down and give people the time of day. You never know who is passing you right by.

I am so grateful to have met Kathy. She generated such an enormous amount of love and kind energy. Kathy had such a zest for life and for God. When she spoke about God, I could literally see a light all around her and especially her face. Her love for God was pure and ultimately sincere. She lived her life with God by her side. Kathy lost her battle with Colon Cancer and died a day before Valentine's Day, on February 13, 2001. Now she truly is right by God's side. Kathy left gifts of love through her poems. She would have wanted to spread her words of love. I hope they bring a warmth and comfort to you as they have to me.
