KATHRYN ANNE "KITTY" MEEK, 69, passed away November 12, 2014 in Pasadena, Texas following a brief illness. Born January 15, 1945, Kitty was a lifelong resident of La Porte and member of La Porte Community Church. She was active in several aspects of church life, especially the bell choir that regularly performed at Sunday services and at Dickens on the Strand in Galveston. In addition to her church life, Kitty enjoyed spending time with her many friends in the Red Hat Society, Beta Sigma Phi sorority, her bunko group and friends that she has made throughout her life, including some she has known since childhood. While attending as a student at San Jacinto College, Kitty also began working in the Registrar's Office. This was the beginning of a fruitful 30-year career with the college. Her enthusiasm for the detailed nature of the job became evident. When she encountered a gap in student or class information, she viewed it as a challenging puzzle and would track down the details that solved the problem. Later in her career at the college she would apply the same enthusiasm while maintaining employee records at the district office. Kitty was recognized by staff and faculty at the college as the go-to person to find answers to questions or to solve a problem. She cherished the time she spent with her workmates, and they were among the closest of her friendships. Kitty was a wonderful and giving mother, and extended that nurturing love beyond her immediate family. Over the years she was a foster mother, a girl scout troop leader, a girl's softball coach, a safety valve when her children's friends needed help and a doting great grandmother. She is survived by her son Frank Meek and wife Barbara Shows of Austin, Texas; her daughter Debra Meek Arcement and Husband Remy of Picayune, Mississippi; her grandchild Mary Conners and husband Cory of Violet, Louisiana, her great grandchildren Cory and Morgan Conners; her sister Patricia Sue McFarlin of Maricopa, Arizona; her three nieces, a nephew and several grand-nieces and grand-nephews. She is preceded in death by her daughter Kathy Lynn Meek and her sister Gloria Heinrich. Visitation will be at Paul U. Lee La Porte Funeral Home on Sunday, November 16 from 5-8 p.m. Services will be held at 10:00 a.m., Monday, November 17, at La Porte Community Church. Interment at Grand View Memorial Park will be followed by a lunch reception at La Porte Community.
