I am deeply sorry for your loss. I worked with Kathy at P41, and it was truly wonderful watching her with the kids. She was a model not only for the students, but staff as well. She exuded compassion and love, and it was obvious how much she care for and loved her students. She is a special person and will be missed.

I never had the pleasure of meeting Kathy but heard nothing but wonderful things. I did, however, have the pleasure of working with her daughter Michele who is an amazingly kind, patient, funny and creative person so I can only assume she is her mother's daughter. My thoughts and prayers are with the Maffatore family during this difficult time.

A fond memory I will always have of Kathy is that she was one of the best teachers I have ever met she was a wonderful behavior management specialist and one day she informed me that she was going to lighten up and I laughed and I said that’s a good thing Her heart was always for the kids and for those that she loved her family and close friends and I was fortunate to know her-I will miss her love Alexis
