In her spare time, Kathy enjoyed travelling, whether it was local trips to Atlantic City or transatlantic adventures to Ireland and Scotland. She also loved to take cruises with her dear friends and family. Kathy was very crafty and enjoyed making knick knacks and attending craft fairs.

She is survived by her son, Robert Marden, her brother Timothy Price and her cousin, dear friend and business partner, Colleen Geiger along with her cousins Corrine Ras, and Christine Sitty, her uncle John McDonald and many other dear friends.
