Kathleen “Kitty” Jo O’Brien passed from this life on February 7, 2023 in Tyler, Texas at Christus Mother Frances Hospital. Kitty was born September 10, 1946, living a life full of laughs for over 76 years, cutting jokes up until the end.
Kitty never met a stranger and spent all her days helping anyone who needed it. She was the type of person that always left you feeling better than you did before. She could bring a smile to anyone’s face with her wit and sense of humor. She touched countless lives, and we are all forever grateful to know and love this woman. Kitty’s name lives on through her granddaughter and great-granddaughter as a testament to the love and respect that she had from all who knew her. Her kind soul and free spirit guided her through a life spent working hard to support three children as a single mother.
Kitty was preceded in death by her grandmother Mary, her mother Ruby, her father Arthur, and her daughter Debra Ann. She is survived by her daughter Wendy Lynn Favors and her husband Dwayne; son Robert Francis O’Brien and his wife Angela; grandchildren Bethanie Kathleen Mackintosh, Lucas Cole Summers, Rylie Grace O’Brien, and Ayden Robert O’Brien; great-grandchildren Bridget Kathleen Mackintosh and Victoria Hunter Mackintosh; Kitty’s sister Sandra Hackebeil and brother Michael Ulrich and her niece Brandy Lynn Hackebeil.
Kitty is also survived by her dearest long-time best friend Lori Naylor, and Lori’s sister Becky Naylor and Becky’s children Lainey, Jaycee, Blake, and Jaron, who loved Kitty as if she was their own grandmother.
All kitties have nine lives, and this Kitty used them all.
