Kathryn “Kathy” Jean Wiederich was born May 24, 1940 to Merion and Jeanette (Dallmann) Doble in Todd County, Minnesota. She grew up around Parkers Prairie, MN where she graduated from high school in 1958.
Kathy married Howard Wiederich on October 27, 1958. Together, they had four sons and one daughter. For work, she cleaned for a couple families and worked in a nursing home until moving to Redwood Falls, MN. She began working at Control Data, Zytec, and retired from Artesyn in 2004, at the age of 64.
Kathy enjoyed walking at the Redwood Area Community Center, going to weekly breakfast with her friends, and doing puzzles during winter months. She helped at the local food shelf after she had retired. Kathy consistently donated blood to the Red Cross. She loved to attend her grandchildren’s dance recital, sporting events, and other activities. She loved watching the Minnesota Vikings and Twins games. Kathy also enjoyed raising chickens and gardening on the farm and spending time with her grandchildren when they visited the farm.
Kathy was a kind, loving woman. She had a strong faith, as she attended St. John’s Lutheran Church and loved listening to Elvis Presley sing gospels.
Kathy is survived by her children, Lori (Robert) Rebstock, David (Erin) Wiederich, Brain (Diann) Wiederich, and Mike (Dayna) Wiederich; her grandchildren, Connor, Selena, and KaSondra Wiederich, Travis, Hunter, and Christina Rebstock; and her great-granddaughter, Noelle Donner.
