Kathy married in 1959 and moved to
Clifton. In 1978, she started working for Panasonic
Company in Secaucus as a Temp. Shortly thereafter, the
company invited her to work full time in Order Entry
Processing. After 5 years, she became supervisor and then
assistant manager of the Order Entry Department. In 2001,
the company came out with a retirement package and she
took it. As of December, 2001, she has been living a life
of leisure as a blond. You know what they say: Blonds
have more fun!
Her greatest achievement was becoming a
mother and raising two wonderful boys. One lives in
Florida and works in construction, and the other is a chef
and lives in Virginia.
Embarrassing moment? Kathy remembers going
to Atlantic City with a friend, and, after a long stroll
on the boardwalk, nature called. They began a frantic
search for facilities, and finally walked into an Irish
Pub. She asked the bartender where the ladies room was,
and he pointed in the general direction of the back of the
room. Kathy raced in and was about to leave when a man
walked in. She ducked back into the stall and waited for
him to leave. He had spied her and said, "I guess you
walked into the wrong bathroom". She called out, "Yes, I
guess so". (The bathroom doors were coyly marked Lads and
Lassies, and in her haste, ended up in the Lads').
Finally, when it was "all clear" she emerged from the
Lads' Room, only to be greeted by a flash of light and
some hysterical laughter. The "gentleman" in the bathroom
had a friend with a camera. Then the two comedians
offered her a copy of the picture for $20.00. Needless to
say, she laughed and took off pronto!
