Katherine Anne Jenkins Wojcik passed Thursday morning on February 9, 2023 at home with all of her children by her side. She was 67 years old. She is fondly known as Kitty—the wife of Thomas Wojcik, mother of Tath, Misun, Gil, Sonny, Alexis, Tom, and Natalia. She is grandmother to Jude, Ira, Wilder, and Dexter.
Kitty was born and raised in Maryland. Kitty was an adventurer and spent her life traveling the world. In 1998, Kitty donated 2/3 of her liver to her husband, Tom, for a transplant when he was ill. They were one of the first in the U.S. to do this surgery. When Tom passed in 2001, she stepped up as a single parent, and gained great success within seven years as an expert nonprofit professional. Kitty worked hard to advance her career in professional fundraising and became one of a handful of grant specialists in the United States. Her last professional endeavor was at Washington Tennis & Education Foundation (WTEF) where she raised millions of dollars for children's education programs in D.C. She loved her job at WTEF because it combined her passion for tennis and her love for helping others, especially children. We will all miss her great warm heart, her generous giving spirit, her positive outlook on life, and her amazing sense of humor. She was a beloved mother, grandmother, and friend.
A memorial visitation for Katherine will be held at the John M. Taylor Funeral Home, 147 Duke of Gloucester Street, Annapolis, MD 21401 on Sunday, February 12, 2023 from 10 AM to 11 AM. A Memorial Service will be held at 11am in the funeral home chapel.
