Kathe Ruth Small

Here is my lovely mother's page, Kathe Ruth (Small) Porter.



I'm not going to post all the journalling since she's alive, but I will put a little of it here:

Kathe has been a stay-at-home wife and mother. Although not a position that is often well-respected, she worked harder than most people who work outside the home. Everyone always commented how clean her house was and that was no small feat for a family with two small children. She often read to her children and played games with them when they were little. The strong foundation that she provided greatly contributed to her family's happiness and success.

On the star: She is an avid reader, enjoying books from many genres.

On the heart: She enjoys spending time with her grandsons.
