Kathleen was "Daddy's Girl"! Princess Kathleen alway sat in the front seat of the Buick, Dad would stop the car any time K needed a rest stop while the boys were told to "hold it until we get home!". K had her own room while her six brothers shared a room of similar size. After John left for military service Paul did the cooking for Dad and K. K was motherly toward Paul but could not match Denny in guiding Paul. Kathleen graduated from the University of Buffalo with a degree in Business. K was a career employee with Macy's Department Stores directing their nationwide Bridal Services program for 30 years.
After all the boys gone, K stayed with Dad but his diaries complained about her frequent absences and infrequent cooking. Dad retired at age 55 and moved to California, bought a home near Jerry and Myra and a new Austin Healy sports car and toured coast and Sierras . K followed some time later after 2 later in life failed marriages, her delay probably the result of K searching her partners who could measure up to the level that her brothers had set. In retirement Kathleen was a care giver to an elderly gentleman and active on the internet buying and selling antique clocks from her apartment in Rocklin, CA.
