Very sad. She was a great anchor. I knew she had issues with brain tumors over the past several years, so this isn't that surprising. Sad, sad, sad.

Pretty much grew up watching her. Always a pro, and just a natural fit for Seattle. KOMO supported her up to the end even though she could no longer be on the air. Sympathy to her family members.

If you want to know what Kathi went through, this video is a good explanation. Well...not good.

This is a story that separates the natives from the recent transplants. I mean, everyone can be sad about this, but it's those of us who grew up watching ONLY Kathi and Dan do the evening news for KOMO that will really grieve, I think. KOMO has had the same anchor team for decades!

Seriously???!!! For God's sake, is it really necessary to detract from a sad day to take a pot shot at transplants? It's disrespectful to the dead and her family, some of whom are transplants, to do such a thing.
