FITE Kathleen Ann (nee Hamilton), age 66 of Cincinnati, passed away Monday, June 03, 2019. She was preceded in death by her father, Paul G. Hamilton. Kathy is survived by her beloved husband of 32 years, Robert S. Fite; daughter, Kristen M. Fite (Everett Merling); mother, Nina R. (Crawford) Hamilton; siblings, Ken (Kim) Hamilton, and Sue (Dan) Tong; and numerous cousins, nieces, nephews, loved ones, and lots of lifelong friends.
Kathy graduated from Belmont High School and Miami University. She taught both junior and senior high school home economics for 16 years before health issues made an early retirement necessary. As much as she enjoyed teaching, the part of her life that she loved most was being a wife to Bob and mother to Kristen. She did everything for her family. Kathy never let any obstacle get in the way of being the best mother and wife that she could be.
She was a generous and gregarious person who never knew a stranger. She was beloved in her community and made an impact on many of her former students and their families. Kathy had varied interests in everything from art, literature, music, needle-arts, photography and sewing to cooking, baking and travel. She was the original Martha Stewart. Kathy enjoyed and loved her pets. Kathy just loved life. She made us all better people by just knowing her.
