star-of-davidKathy Meals passed away Monday afternoon after a very short illness of an aggressive cancer.  She passed away peacefully in the loving presence of family.  Kathy accepted and even embraced her death as she lived her life; with faith, strength, courage and tenacity.

The service of memorial and burial will be Tuesday, April 30th.  There will be a 2:00 pm service at Congregation Bonai Shalom, 1527 Cherryvale Road, Boulder,  followed by a burial at approximately 4:00 pm at Mountain View Memorial Park, 3016 Kalmia Ave, Boulder.  There will be a gathering of family, friends and community at Kathy’s home following the burial.

The family have requested that In lieu of any flowers, take your family out for dinner and movie – that’s what Kathy would have wanted!  Alternatively, consider making a donation to Donate Life America or a charity important to you.

Blessings of strength and comfort to Kathy’s children, in-laws, grandsons, siblings and the many loving friends. Peace on Kathy’s soul.

With gratitude for the gift of Kathy’s life,
Rabbi Marc
