Kathy graduated from Haverhill High School in 1972, before moving to Atlanta, GA where she and her late husband, Stephen Jaggers, made their home for over 40 years. Kathy was the devoted and proud mother to her son, Major Christopher Jaggers of the United States Air Force and treasured being Nana to her grandson, Devin Jaggers both of Andover, KS.
During high school, Kathy traveled to Germany and developed a lifelong love for traveling the world. Making new friends wherever she went, Kathy was known for having no problem jumping in her car and driving several days to spend time with those she loved. She was also a collector of antiques and enjoyed traveling to the Antiques Roadshow with her close friends. Most of all, Kathy enjoyed traveling (to Kansas) to spend time with her son and grandson or returning back home to New England to spend time at the family lake house in Maine.
