She was born December 19, 1882, in Pikeville, Tenn., the daughter of Leonard T. Hutcheson and Olive Kuykendall Hutcheson. She attended Burritt College, Spence, Tenn. She was one of the third generation of her family to graduate at Burritt. There she married Fred M. Little, a young preacher, also from Pikeville, in December 1903. She received her B. S. degree from the University of Tennessee.
Fred Little preached in many places, principally in Tennessee and Alabama. He preached for the Catoma Street church in Montgomery, Alabama 1920-27 and at the Capitol Heights church 1929-32. Then they returned to Tennessee.
After Brother Little's death in 1942 she returned to teaching. Sister Little served as teacher and librarian at Athens Bible School from 1949 to 1955. She then joined the faculty of Alabama Christian High School as librarian and English teacher, then librarian of the College and later in the School of Religion where she served until a few weeks before her death.
The last years of the life of Kathryn H. Little were given even more to the Lord, to his church and to Christian Education. She believed the words, "Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might." She faced life with her might, and great was that might. She worked while it was day, realizing "the night cometh, when no man can work."
She is survived by her son, Don Little of Prattville, Ala.; two daughters Mrs. J. B. Roberson, Chattanooga, Tenn., and Mrs. Jean Wheatley, Louisville, Ky.; four sisters, Mrs. Mattie Swallows, Cookeville, Tenn., Mrs. Mary Coffman, Wheat Ridge, Colo., Mrs. Edith Richmond, Cleveland, Tenn., and Mrs. Fannie Coffman, Detroit, Mich.; three brothers, John Hutcheson, Nashville, Tenn., David Hutcheson, Ferndale, Mich., and L. T. Hutcheson, Birmingham, Ala., and her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Her funeral January 8, 1971, was conducted by Rex Turner, E. R. Brannan and Clyde E. Fulmer with singers from the college church and Alabama Christian College. Interment was in Montgomery, Ala. --H. E. Comer. Gospel Advocate, February 4, 1971, page 78.
