Our family has such fond memories of Kathe we purchased several bull calves to raise for our freezer durning the middle 1980's The first calf we ever bought was a major investment for us money was very tight we were very nervous about raising our first Beef. Kathe was so kind to us coaching us on just what we needed to do I will never forget her kindness that day as we purchased our first calf Kathe had a sparkel in her eye and told us if you promise to take care of this little Jersery she named peanut you can take him home for free....... She was an Angel to us that day with such a blessing Many pictures in our family album are pictures of calves Kathe sold to us over the years Her kindness will always remain in our hearts with love The Scott family Sender's Name: Gail Leonard
