Kathey Loefstedt:  

Life I was married for 27 years, but divorced in 2009. I have a wonderful adult step-daughter that I love as though she was my own. My granddaughter, Felicia is 21 and a dental assistant. My grandson, James is 19 and taking college courses. They all live in Kendall, New York. Worked as admissions director at our local hospital for 20 years until July 1998. From then until Dec. 2008 I worked for Center For Urology which was right down the street from the hospital. 30 years of only having to travel 16 miles roundtrip to work-I was very lucky. I unfortunately have not been able to obtain gainful employment since moving to Florida. Plenty of medical positions, but plenty of unemployed folks also. So I may be relocating before long. Dick is in remission thanks to God's plan. I would hate to have to leave here , but financially I can not stay where I can't get a job. So only time will tell. If you would like to include me in your prayers, I would greatly appreciate it. Ricky is still growing each day- he is 16 mo old now. Very handsome pup if I say so myself. He brightens each and every day. I hope that each and everyone one of you and your families have health and happiness. I am looking forward to our 40th reunion next summer. Hope to see many of you there!! 7/28/2011 The last six months have brought many changes. Saddly Dick came out of remission in January and passed away in April. It was a hard decision to make, but though my legal address is still in Florda, I am pursuing employment in Upstate New York. Hopefully I will find a position soon, so Ricky and I will have our own home again. He is 2 1/4 yrs old now and just a delight. My family has been wonderful and I appreciate being able to stay with several of them, but do miss having my privacy and my own furniture and things, I hope that doesn't sound selfsh, it isn't meant that way. I am just trusting in God to get through each day and ajust to life without Dick. I am thankful for the time we had together, but I miss him terribly. Well, I will close for now. Hope to see everyone at the reunion, won't be long now. 10/01/2012 I have a beautiful Great Granddaughter, Paetyn Caroline who arrived since I last updated my profile. She is a joy and provides us with lots of smiles and laughter. I had been at West Ridge OB/GYN for the last 13 months, but lost my job three weeks ago. So I am once again looking for gainful employment. Ricky and I have our own apartment in Charlotte, at least we do for now. I go down to Bradford to check on Dick's grave as often as I can. I still miss him terribly, but Ricky and I rely on God to get through each day. Dick's sister visited from Tampa last month and I really enjoyed it. I miss my Tampa friends a lot. Other than that, there is nothing much new with me. I hope you are all healthy and happy. God Bless, Kathey 12/27/2014 I hope that this finds each and everyone of you having enjoyed a Joyous Holiday Season. I have been working for Unity Family Medicine in Spencerport since April of 2013. It is a good group of people and the majority of the secretaries are my age. Far less drama than when working with a group of youngsters. We are a hospital owned practice. Our health system (Unity) just merged with Rochester General's Health System, so we are now Rochester Regional Health System. We have lost some benefits, but other changes have not come to fruition as of this time. It is early in the merger, so I am sure that there will be more changes to come. Ricky is 5 1/2 now and still keeps me going. We have moved out to Clarkson from Charlotte to a duplex instead of a complex. We have open farm fields across the street from us. My neighbor in the other side of the duplex is teaching Ricky Spanish. He seems to understand her directions which is quite amazing. I am closer to work and my family, so that is nice. My ex-husband and I are friends. We speak often and do attend functions together once in awhile. It is nice that we have been able to forge a friendship with boundaries that we both respect. It is almost 4 years since Dick passed away, but my heart is still broken. I do not think it possible that I will ever be the person I once was, but I try to take each day as it comes. I do hope that 2015 will bring health and happiness to you and yours. May God continue to watch over all of us. Kathey November 20, 2015 I do hope that this finds each and everyone of you well. I am still at Unity Family Medicine in Sp...Expand for more
