Kathleen lost Raymond after 37 years of marriage when he passed away on April 18, 1993.
She later met Ronald Anderson and the couple was united in marriage on March 23, 1996.
They would make their home on Ronald's farm in rural Lawler until they moved to New Hampton, Iowa.
Ronald passed away on January 19, 2014.
After his passing Kathleen remained close with his children. In 2018, Kathleen moved to Eyota to be closer to her daughter, Sharon as her own health declined.
She was a member of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church. Kathleen enjoyed quilting, gardening and canning and generalized crafting. She also enjoyed traveling, camping, and fishing.
