Now in her 90th year Kathy’s book contains compelling fragments of her life. Her story vividly chronicles so many aspects of her amazing and varied life across the years - from being a WW2 child evacuee with her twin brother, her first job after leaving school and her first fascinating boyfriends. 'Fragments' relates how her parents forced decisions upon her which she regretted at the time. The book explains how Kathy came to meet John - her first husband, and their long marriage of 48 years until his death. Kathy speaks about her exciting experiences as a singer and actress on the amateur stage in the Midlands. In her mid years we learn how Kathy became drawn to the Christian faith, and how she became a Reader in the Anglican Church, where for many years she preached and ministered in the country churches along Offa’s Dyke. The story allows us to appreciate how keen a horsewoman she was and how Kathy was steeped in country lore. Finally Kathy tells how it is possible to live once again after facing the traumatic loss of her first husband.
