Kate
on her wedding day.

Kate
& Jeff

Sweet
memories.
|
|

The
reason Kate's Kids was founded is simple... to perpetuate Kate's
memory and her love of life.
Kate
was survived by her husband of less than a year, Jeff Berman. Kate
and Jeff met in Las Vegas in November of 2001. She was on a "girls
weekend" to celebrate her birthday; he was there for work.
Her mom, Marge, thought she was nuts when she came home from Vegas
and proclaimed she'd met the man she was going to marry. They were
married in September of 2002 in her parents' backyard.
It
is in her honor and memory that her husband, Jeff, founded Kate's
Kids. Many of her family and friends assist with foundation events
and serve on its Board of Directors.
While
Kate did not have children of her own, she very much enjoyed her
nieces and nephews and had hoped she and Jeff would one day be parents.
