Virginia Beach shooting: 12 killed after disgruntled city worker opens fire at colleagues

Katherine A. Nixon of Virginia Beach, an engineer who worked 10 years for the city's public utilities department.

Nixon, 42, leaves behind a husband and their three children.

Katherine Anne Marie Lusich-Nixon, 42, of Virginia Beach, VA, was tragically taken from us on May 31, 2019.

The second of eight children, she was a loving mother committed to her husband and children, and she worked as the Compliance Manager of the Public Utility Facility for the City of Virginia Beach. She attended Chico State College in California, graduating with a degree in Civil Engineering. She was widely respected in her field, and was a strong advocate for women pursuing careers in engineering.

Kate was a person who always put others before herself. She was President of the Pembroke Meadows Civic League, a dedicated and enthusiastic member of St Gregory The Great Catholic Church, the announcer for the Pembroke Marlin swim team, and actively supported the Little Sisters of the Poor, a Catholic organization that offers the neediest elderly of every race and religion a home where they will be welcomed.โˆผKATHERINE ANNE MARIE LUSICH-NIXON
