Granada Remembers Kathy Perkoff

Dear Nica Times:

Thank you for your article in The Nica Times regarding the death of Kathy Perkoff (NT, Feb. 5).

It is a true history in reference to our dear Kathy. We are very pleased about how you wrote about Kathy’s incident. It was tragic for all who knew her.

Only she knows why we were left behind when she ended her life. She did not share her motive. If she did, maybe we could have persuaded her to give life a chance. God bless her for all the goodness we received from her.

Leonel I. Poveda
