Century Club, and was a social member of the Irish Club of Monroeville and the Elks Lodge in Wilkins Twp.  She enjoyed traveling domestically and internationally with Barry, with Alaska being her most memorable destination.  Kathy was a selfless soul who always placed the needs of others before her own.  For years she volunteered with Emmanuel Lutheran Church of Eastmont delivering meals to those in need.  Most of all, she treasured the memories made spending time with her family and friends.
