Dear Jerry and children, I am so sorry for the loss of Kathie, wife and mother. It has only been in the last 6 months that I have reconnected with her and we shared some family pictures. We were close friends during our late high school years and for some years thereafter. Have many memories of those times. Diann and Don Hofschulte Pueblo, Colorado

Our condolences to you and your family at this difficult time. Aunt Kathy was a wonderful person and will be truly missed. Our prayers are, and always will be, with you.

I am so sad to think Aunt Kathie is no longer with us. She was such a special person - so sweet, loving and kind. To Uncle Jerry, Scott, Chris, Kim and Eric and your families I send all my love at this difficult time. Gaye

My deepest sympathy for the entire Gronlund family. I hear, through Kim, she was an exceptional person and mother. (She must have been to have such a kind, giving and lovely daughter). I have you in my prayers. ann margaret

As a friend of Kim and Mike Meyer, I really only knew Kathie as "mom". She was just that type of person. Over the years I would see mom and Gerry at various Meyer family parties and celebrations. She always greeted me with that huge smile and a hug. She was a Viking fan who wore the purple with pride and I was always grateful when she let me off gently as her team usually beat mine. Her wit and warmth will be missed by all who were privileged to know her. My wife Jane and I offer our condolences to her family.

Our condolences to Jerry, Kim, Mike, Zach & Corey and all of the Gronlund clan - we will truly miss our beloved Kathie. We feel so fortunate to have spent many summer BBQs, holidays, cul-de-sac block parties with Kathie and Jerry part of our Las Piedras family, and for Sam to have been so lucky to have such a loving "bonus" grandma in his life. We will miss Kathie's wit, honesty, great love of family and friends, and we are thankful that she shared her wonderful family with us over the years. Our thoughts, prayers and love are with Jerry, and with Kim's, Kris', Scott's and Eric's families at this time.

Our deepest sympathy to the Gronlund family on the passing of Kathie. She was a wonderful, caring lady with a sparkle in her eye. We so enjoyed her company each time we saw her. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. wayne & jane

To the Gronlund Family: My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. So sorry for your loss. I remember how loving and devoted she was to her family. God Bless, Lola Seffens & Family
