Born to John Ivan Kvaternick and Rose Marie (Oberster) Kvaternick on August 5, 1939 in Crested Butte, Colorado, Katherine was one of eight siblings.
Though her dream to become a nurse was never fulfilled, instead choosing to devote her life to her children and husband, she did eventually gain a career in the medical field as a Certified Nursing Assistant, caring for "the older generation" in nursing homes and serving her community as an at-home visiting CNA.
Katherine is preceded in death by six sisters and one brother; by her husband, Albert Thomas Kistner; by a son, Joseph Kistner; and by a grandson, Daniel Kistner. She is survived by two sons: Robert Kistner of Stafford, Virginia and Albert Kistner and his wife, Christina Kistner, of Stafford, Virginia; by a daughter, Katherine Kistner-Childs and her husband, Jerry Childs, of Holiday, Florida; by six grandchildren: Adrienne (Mann) Furr and her husband, Brian of Spotsylvania, Virginia; Carrie Kistner Murphy and her husband, Rob, of Fredericksburg, Virginia; AJ Kistner of Stafford, Virginia; Jerika Kistner and Jaden Childs, both of Holiday, Florida and Jacob Kistner of Stafford, Virginia; and by three great-grandchildren, with one on the way.
