She was one of 9 children and the only one to live her entire life in Ashland. Early on, Kathy was employed by Adams Supermarket in the meat room and Sprague Electric Co as a parts assembler. She also worked for 14 years in food service between Ashland, Plymouth and Inter-lakes schools. She spent many, many hours and years volunteering in the Ashland community as a Sunday school teacher, a deaconess, trustee, hospitality, choir member and financial secretary at the Ashland Baptist Church. For several years she was the treasurer for the Ashland 4th of July committee, treasurer for the Ashland Memorial Park and the Ashland Area Recreation Association. She volunteered for over 10 years for the children’s Save for America program through Meredith Village Savings Bank. Kathy also assisted her husband Steve with the Youth League T-Ball and girls ages 9-12 softball teams for a few years. In 2018 during the 4th of July parade, Kathy and Steve were recognized as Grand Marshall for all their dedicated community service over the years. Kathy enjoyed fishing with her grandchildren, car racing, photographing covered bridges all over New England and traveling with her husband Steve. She also enjoyed crafting and knitting.
