Kathy Lamsargis

Kathy Lamsargis taught different grade levels over her twenty-year career as a teacher. After she achieved her master’s degree in reading, she provided title services as a reading specialist. Kathy has always been enthusiastic about reading. Long ago she recognized the importance of deep and lasting relationships, especially between grandchildren and their grandparents. Marbles in a Fishbowl is a tribute to her grandparents, Roy and Jane Bode. She is thrilled to share a slice of their history, and the life lessons learned while spending time with them. Kathy is a dedicated volunteer in her community and has travelled to Haiti and Nicaragua six times with International Assist Medical Missions (IAMM.) Kathy and her husband George reside in Springfield, Illinois where she has lived since 1980. They have a blended family of four grown children: Tim, Carrie, Betsy, and Sophie and twelve grandchildren.
