Kathy was a membership director, and had most recently worked for Airstream RV Association before retiring at 80. She was a life-long member of Grace Lutheran Church in Jackson Center. Katherine enjoyed gardening, caring for the numerous pets she had over the years as well as feeding birds. She also loved traveling, something her and her late husband Don enjoyed doing together with her sister Ann and her husband Jul. Family was of the greatest importance to Katherine.

She will long be remembered for hosting the large Thanksgiving Day events not only for her immediate family, but for her large extended family who she loved very much.
