Kathleen Diane Viger

Kathleen Diane Viger, 63, of Perry Hall, Maryland took the last step on her stairway to Heaven on August 14, 2020. Kathy’s first step was April 12, 1957, when she was born to Norman J. and Alvenise M. (Metivier) Viger, joining her siblings Norman, Janet and Linda.

Kathy was known for her love of horses. She spent many years training, riding and showing her beloved Quarter Horses. This passion led her to be active for many years in 4-H not only as a member, but also a leader.

Kathy grew up in Pittsfield, Maine where she attended school and graduated from Maine Central Institute in 1975.

After graduating, Kathy moved to Maryland where she started a family with former husband and lifetime friend, Gregory M. Gieron. Together they raised three beautiful daughters Jasmine, Jessica and Jennifer Gieron. Later in life they were blessed with the arrival of their amazing granddaughter Oliviya Gieron.

Kathy was predeceased by her parents. She is survived by Gregory M., Jasmine Y., Jessica E., Jennifer M. and Oliviya A. Gieron. Norman J. Viger (Dossey), Janet V. Bryant (Tom) and Linda Y. Wiles (Roger). She is also survived by numerous loving nieces and nephews and a large extended family.

Relatives and friends are invited to a Mass of Christian Funeral on Monday, August 17, 2020, at 12pm, at St. Joseph Catholic Church (Nottingham, MD). Interment will follow in the adjoining cemetery.
