She also worked at the VA Regional Office and then for many years at the VA Hospital as an agent cashier. She retired after 40 years of service. Kathy loved helping the patients at the VA and would always go the extra mile for them.

Kathy also enjoyed reading, watching movies and doting over her pets.

She leaves behind to cherish her memory her extended family, Rhonda Barron, Jennifer Coffee, Jason Coffee, Dakota Coffee, Montana Coffee and numerous other loved “framily” members.

A special thank you to all the staff that took such good care of Kathy at Providence Hospital, St. Catherine's Rehab, PT and OT, and Providence Hospice Place. Without them we wouldn't have made it.
