The mothers would leave their children in her care, leave the store for a few hours then retrieve them as if they shopped there for hours. Kins knew, but said nothing for she loved and cared for them so much. She will be remembered by cousins Stacy, Amy, Stephanie Thornwall at that time, and brothers Darin and Jacob Zabriskie, for the thrill rides she gave. Lagoon had nothing on her, going the wrong way on a one way road, entering the freeway on the exit. She loved to be with and take them for a great time as the big sister. A few dents but no bruises would stop her from taking them for a thrill ride or just ice cream. She loved her sister Shannon’s kids, Shyanne, Tazz and Savy very much. She would take Shyanne shopping and to get treats when she could, as for Tazz and Savy she would go over and play with them for she was starting to have problems that keep her from doing what she could do before. She had to give up her license and car. Her grandmother Gayle Bland would also miss her visits, they were so close that if you ever got the evil glare from Gayle, you knew that glare Kins gave was the same and could put fear in your heart. The two of them were close to the very end. Gayle went first, but Kins even to the last thought she was still here. Kinsey missed her grandpa John Katter when he passed two years ago.
