"Kathy and her husband, Arun were the first people we met when we moved to Waterloo nine years ago. When we arrived they came to the door and invited us over for dinner. We had two kids and one on the way. For the next several years they helped in the way it takes a village to raise children.
Later on, Arun volunteered to coach our son's baseball team which was a huge commitment. Kathy lives a busy life, but always makes time for neighbours, especially when it comes to helping them with their garden. Everyone loves to talk with Kathy and she may not know it, but they need her words of wisdom, empathy and neighbourly love. She often has stories of what people are going through and her simple acts of listening and acknowledging everyone who walks by means so much to them."
