Kathie graduated from Fulton High School and attended Scott Community and Davenport Barber Styling colleges. Kathie found her dream job as a barber stylist for the last 45 years. She also owned her own salon for many of those years making connections and becoming a friend to all.
Kathie was an Army veteran and the first woman in the IA National Guard. She was a volunteer for many organizations including Genesis Hospice performing We Honor Veterans presentations to patients and 11th Hour Vigil volunteer so no one was alone. She was a volunteer at Madison Elementary School as a reading tutor, gave haircuts and laundry for those in need. She was most proud of receiving the “Hug” award from the Davenport Community Schools. She also was very active at her church St. Paul Lutheran.
She had a passion for gardening, golfing, reading, crafting, but most of all her grandkids, including those that she ‘adopted.’ No heart was bigger.
