Kathleen Stoddart is a Woonsocket local. I have a husband, 3 grown kids and 3 dog babies to keep me busy. I love hardware stores and can be seen checking out all the cool stuff. I also work as a local realtor and crochet baby blankets for our RI hospitals. My volunteerism hard at work! Oh, and I love to bake and make baskets of goodies at Christmas for our service workers and neighbors (using my family as taste testers lol!)
