Our beloved wife, mother, and friend, Kathryn Palmer Maziarz, returned home to our Heavenly Father on September 19, 2009. She passed away after courageously enduring cancer. Kathy was born in San Francisco, California to her dear parents Richard and LaPriel Palmer on September 29, 1949. She is the third of three children. She graduated from San Ramon Valley High School and did most of her undergraduate studies at Utah State University and received her bachelor's degree from Cleveland State University. She married her eternal love Al on December 27, 1969 in the Oakland Temple. They have been "two peas in a pod" for forty blessed years. Her treasures are her four children and five grandchildren. She was a spiritual person having a human experience and her presence elevated all who knew her. Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. Friday, September 25, 2009 at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints at 4550 Lone Oak St. in South Salem for all who wish to attend in her honor. Burial will follow at Restlawn Memory Gardens. The family wishes to thank everyone for their outpouring of love and concern including family, friends, health care workers, and loving Hospice workers.
