Christie, I love your mother and wish I had had a chance to meet her. I also must thank you for honoring Muttville by choosing our organization for her. I am planning to name our next nameless dogs after her, Mac and Kenzie, so keep a look out!

I enjoyed the slide show and the story—very San Franciscan! I’m fourth generation San Franciscan, so you beat me by one. But I also grew up hearing elderly relatives tell the story of camping in Golden Gate Park after the 06 Fire and Earthquake. Your mother was clearly a Grand Old San Franciscan, part of the very fabric of The City.

My goodness, you and your mom look so much alike. I have no doubt that’s just one way her spirit lives on in you.

Christie, what a beautiful piece of writing over on your blog. And the pictures … you look just like her … I never realized exactly how much!

You were such a devoted daughter to your mother. She was very fortunate to have such a great support before and during her illness.

It was meaningful to me to see the slideshow—which showed your mother from her youth going on up to her older self. Thanks for sharing.

Take good care of yourself, Christie!

What a lovely tribute, Christie. I feel I know Kathleen. And she was beautiful.
