Kathern worked as an EMS dispatcher for many years. She was deeply involved in her grandchildren’s’ lives. She loved being called “Nan Nan”. She enjoyed flower and vegetable gardening, and you could often find her canning vegetables that she grew in her garden. She also enjoyed cooking and baking and teaching others what she had learned over the years. She made famous hot rolls with a recipe that has been passed down to family and friends. In her spare time she loved vacationing in Florida at the beach with her son and grandkids. She was a great neighbor and would help anyone. She had a wonderful smile and beautiful blue eyes. As a mother and friend to many, she will be deeply missed.
