Kathleen had a deep relationship with or Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, which was so very important to her. If you were around her for very long, before she was weakened by dementia, it wouldn’t take you long to know that, because she would share her faith with you. She was a prayer warrior. The family can remember many, times when concerns came their way, one of the first things they did was to call in Momma to pray. She truly had a hotline to Heaven!!! Kathleen was a member of the Salem Baptist Church.
Kathleen graduated from Princeton High School in the class of 1943 and was the class valedictorian. After that she attended college at Maryville and received a teaching certificate. She taught for 4 years at country schools, one year at Bellview, one year at Smith and the last two years at Brantley. She married Clifton Singleton the day after her last of school at Brantley. She spent the rest of her life being the best wife, mom and grandmother she could possibly be. Her great faith in God and her love for her family is the greatest gift she could leave. Although she will be greatly missed, there’s no doubt we will see her again someday.
There will be open visitation Friday from 9 a.m. until 6 p.m., Friday at Slater Neal Funeral Home. A private burial will be held Saturday at Salem Cemetery near Mill Grove. Memorial donations are suggested to Salem Cemetery and left with or mailed to the funeral home.
