Anthony Buttacavoli - Our Wedding Advisor, a great friend. He’s done everything from going to look at halls, helped find rings, picking up the stamps, buying all the table cameras, surfing the web, going for the wedding gown, helped look for everything and kept Kathy sane. He will be doing so many more things behind the scenes the day of the wedding. He's finally agreed to do a reading, under my constant pressure.  We love you and are forever grateful.
 
Yvonne Sydnor - Creator of this website. A great friend to us and was to Kathy’s Mom. You’ll see her the day of the wedding. Yvonne will be standing in for Kathy’s Mom, and lighting the taper candle. She will also be giving a toast at the reception. She’s also helping out with the rehearsal dinner. Yvonne is also doing so many other behind the scenes things. We love you and are so glad you’re a part of our lives.
   
Estelle Barnes - Thank you so much. Estelle went looking for the wedding dress with Kathy. Estelle is also responsible for all of the flowers for the wedding.  Estelle, they would never have been so beautiful without you. Thank you for your love and patience.
   
Thanna Rummel - (MOM) I have to get used to that. Thank you for your patience when you took me for the wedding dress. I’m sure Anthony and I may have done just a few things to drive you crazy. I do appreciate you helping me write all of the invitations out too. Thank you for everything else you’ve done and continue to do. Your friendship, help and love means more than I can say. We love you.
   
Charles Rummel Senior - We would like to thank you for giving the Blessing at the reception. I know you really don’t want to do it, since you’ll feel out of place, but it means a lot to both of us. We love you and are so glad you’re taking part in our day.
   
Carol Wyckoff - Thank you so much for running all over the Island to get the girls dresses. And for putting up with all the calls about Ken acting up. Thank you for all you’ve done for the wedding, including the stress. We’re glad you're allowing us to use your house for the rehearsal dinner and for the morning of the wedding. It’s nice to be able to do all of this from the house we grew up in. Most of all, thank you for being the big sister. We love you even if we don’t say it all the time.
   
Heather Rummel - Thank you for going with us for the wedding gown. I know Thanna and Anthony were acting up some. I was glad you went. Thanks for being in the bridal party it means a lot to both of us. We love you and your family very much.
   
Kent Johnathan - Whether you do get to sing our wedding song or not, the thought is still there, and we appreciate it. We also appreciate the toast you’re going to make. You’ve been there through thick and thin, and we know you always will be. We love you and we’re glad you’ll be with us on our wedding day.
   
Mary Gehlich - We know you really don’t like to get up in front of a bunch of people but we’re so glad you are. I know you’ll be a wreck until your reading that you are doing at the church is done. But it means so much to us to have the people we love involved in the wedding. Thank you for doing it. We love you and appreciate you taking part in the wedding.
   
Zachary & Vanessa Wyckoff - Thank you for the endless hours you both spent shopping with Aunt Kathy and Ken, for all the little things. And for searching threw tons of ribbons and flowers for just the right ones. Thanks for your help decorating all the bubbles, they came out great. We love you very much.
 
Allison Stansfield - Thank you so much for agreeing to make a toast at the wedding. Of all my friends I know you the longest. You're the one that got me into the most trouble and still can, so be kind. LOL.  Seriously, we're glad that you'll make the toast, and even happier that you'll be there to celebrate our day with us. It certainly has been a long time coming. Laverne, I have so many memories of us growing up I couldn't possibly reflect on one now. I'm glad we were friends and still are, I've shared some of my best and worst times with you and your parents growing up, and I am so grateful that we are still friends and always there for each other even if we don't get to see each other so often any more. I love you, Kathy.
 
Lorraine & Jerry Pesther - Thank you so much for letting me store my gown and other essentials at your house, not to mention the constant visits to it. LOL. Thank you for offering to let me use your house the day of the wedding to get dressed. I just may take you up on it. And yes Jerry, I'll bring my scissors. LOL. Thank you also for putting up with me for almost my entire life. So many of my childhood memories involve you and Allison, most of which I'll cherish until I can no longer remember them. Of course I wouldn't mind if the one's with "Cutie Patrol" or "The Fish Pond Burial" left my memory, soon!
  
I love you both, and I'm so glad you'll be there to celebrate our wedding with us. And just because I am moving don't think I won't be back for a Christmas Eve or two. I miss that. Thank you again.  Love, Kathy.
