Kathryn Ann Cramer, affectionately known as Kathy to her friends and family, passed away peacefully on January 26, 2025, at the age of 83. Born on March 21, 1941, Kathy's life was a tapestry of love, kindness, and adventure, which she shared generously with everyone around her. Kathy's spirit is carried on by her loving husband, Ken Cramer, who stood by her side in both joy and sorrow. She was a beacon of love for her family, including her sister JoAnn (Kenneth) Grennier, and brother Fred (Gail) Tyszka. Her legacy of warmth and caring will live on through her granddaughters, Stephanie (Shari) Mettille and Rhiannon (Annie) Campbell, and her cherished great-grandchildren, Destiny Kintop, Kailynn Kintop, Austin Mettille, and Maison Kintop. Kathy was preceded in death by her beloved daughters, Cindy Omann and Diane Duffrin, whose memories remain a comfort to those who knew and loved them. A woman of many passions, Kathy's love for gardening and flowers was evident in the vibrant blooms that surrounded her home. Her enthusiasm for car racing brought excitement and joy to many of her weekends, and her adoration for her cat was a testament to her nurturing spirit. Kathy's baking was legendary, especially her Christmas cookies, which became a cherished holiday tradition eagerly anticipated by family and friends. Kathy's commitment to her community was unwavering, as seen in her dedicated volunteer work at St. Mary's Catholic Church. Her love for antiques reflected her appreciation for the stories and history behind each piece, and her collection was a source of pride and joy. Those who knew Kathy will remember her for her loving nature and kind heart. She was a friend who maintained lifelong connections, always keeping in touch with her high school friends, proving that true friendships withstand the test of time. Her adventurous soul inspired many, and her willingness to embrace life's journey with open arms will not be forgotten. Kathy's life was a lesson in love and kindness, and her memory will continue to inspire those who were fortunate enough to know her. She leaves behind a legacy of love, a family who adored her, and a world that was made brighter by her presence. Kathy will be dearly missed, but her spirit will remain a guiding light for all who loved her. In Lieu of flowers the family would like donations to be made to the Alzheimer's Foundation
