Katherine Marie Winters

She was born in Pittsburgh, PA on February 20, 1931 to Catherine H. Jones. After graduating from Dormont High School in 1949 she married Walter C. Rinier Jr. and started her family. As her family grew she went on to work at the Bell Telephone Company as an operator supervisor where she eventually retired from. Retirement life began in Little River, South Carolina but after 10 years she returned to Pittsburgh where her heart always was.

Kitty had a wonderful life. From raising a family with Walt to learning the art of fishing with George Galenec , her 2nd husband. She then went on to traveling the world with her 3rd husband William Winters. Bill and Kitty visited Spain & Switzerland and took sailboat trips to many tropical islands but the most wonderful trip was to South Africa for the millennium visiting their dear friends Barbie and Lotar.

Kitty was an avid Pittsburgh sports fan. She loved watching the Pirates and Steelers games with her kitty Bella by her side. You would always find her dressed to the nines in her Black & Gold.

Surviving her are her 3 children: Walter F. Rinier, Judith R. Stewart (John) and Nancy R. Belanger (Ron) plus her extended family of Deborah Winters, William Winters (Natalie), Linda Winters Morgan, and Karen Winters. We also want to mention her dear friend Sylvia Bender who was always around to lend a hand and a laugh.

Kitty had 4 Granddaughters in her family, Jessie Bell (Dan) & Dylan Uhlir (Jamie), Tara Work (Justin) & Leah Rinier plus bonus Grandchildren in Kara, Lauren, Brian, Logan Winters and Emma Morgan. Her Great Grandchildren being Silas, Milo, Macy, Danny, Sadie, Aubrey, Jake, Ellie and Brooke. Extended Greats include Rowan, Kaiden, Camden, Nash & Navy.

Kitty was laid to rest at Mt. Lebanon Cemetery, Mt. Lebanon PA on May 4, 2023. The family suggests if one wishes to, a donation be made to Friends of Dormont Pool (friendsofdormontpool.org) in her name as she enjoyed many summers at the Pool.

Funeral arrangements were made by Milliken & Throckmorton Funeral Home, Inc. 197 N. Maiden Street, Waynesburg, PA 15370 Shane M. Ayers, Director. The family would also like to thank ViaQuest Hospice Care as well as WeCare Waynesburg for their compassionate care of our Mother.
