I knew Kathy as Ms. Wilson, my 6th grade history teacher, and a real human being who was there for not only me, but every kid who struggled with the hardships that came with being in middle school. She was the coolest, and always leant an open ear and open heart to anyone.
I met a couple of my lifelong best friends in her class, which makes memories of her all the sweeter. My buddy Pete and I took some pictures in the Amazon and both said, “These are for Ms. Wilson!” (I’ll attach the very image). This is a life lesson for myslef, and anyone to reach out to those you love before it was too late.
I was born 20 years too late, as far as my taste in music was concerned, but Kathy didn’t think so, she thought it was so cool that I was into Van Halen and Primus. Sometimes after school, even when I as in the 7th and 8th grade, I would go hang out in Ms. Wilson’s class room while she finished up her day, and play bass guitar while she busied herself. She was truly the coolest, and most selfless lady I ever knew, and I’ll kiss her for all of my days. My condolences to Mr. Jones, Sophie, and Robbie, and everybody that touched the life of Kathy Jones
