Kate found joy in life’s simple pleasures. She loved shopping and exploring garage sales, always on the hunt for a bargain or a unique find.

Kathryn will be lovingly remembered as a devoted wife, mother, and friend, as well as a cornerstone of her community.

Visitation was held from 1-6 p.m. Monday, December 2, 2024 at McClendon-Winters Funeral Home Chapel of Beggs. Funeral services were held at 11 a.m. Tuesday at First Baptist Church of Beggs, with Pastor Chris Gore officiating. Interment followed at Duck Creek Cemetery.
