Kathy Diane Guillory was born to parents Betty “Sherry” (Carlson) Beard and Herbert Guillory on Monday, February 9, 1959, in Sulphur, Louisiana. Kathy had an ability to see beauty and life in everything no matter what phase of life it was at. She loved gardening and found out very quick she had the “green thumb”. She loved anything to do with Native Americans, painting, collecting shells from the beach, camping at the lake and fast cars. But none would rise above the foundation of the life she created for herself. That is all she wanted surrounding her, is that pure unfiltered kind of love her family, her children and her grandchildren and nature could give her.
