  • Notes 
    • The rose window in the Episcopal Church in Little Falls is dedicated to Kitty, as was the baptismal font. According to a pamphlet written by Bill Cheeseman the window "is comparable to Tiffany stained glass. Records do not tell us who the master artist was, [but] experts who have studied the window think it could have come from the studio of Brown, Jones, and Morris of England or accomplished by a German master. Regardless, it is an outstanding work of art containing detail seldom found in stained glass windows."

      The church was deconsecrated in November, 2015 because of a dwindling membership.
