Kathleen Kathy Slatter Dollison

She was born August 7, 1956 in Longview to Airal V. and Wyvonia Beauchamp Slatter. Kathy

spent her life caring for others, whether it was a stray dog or someone that needed a place to

stay for a little while, while getting things straightened out, she was there. She definitely

had a soft heart for those in need. She would always make sure that family members and

friends had special things for birthdays and around each holiday, and would often turn a

simple cookout into a surprise birthday party just to make someone feel special.

She is survived by her husband, Jack Dollison of Longview; daughters: Carrie Slatter of

Portland, Oregon, Ida Grammer and her husband Matt of White Oak, Jackie Perez of

Longview; sons: Daniel Miller and his wife Cara of Nederland, TX, Phillip Higginbotham of

Mabank, TX; grandchildren: Bailey, Savannah, Alex, Andrew, Secilia, Lena, Donte, Ethan,

Christian, Trinity, and Adrien; sisters: Charlotte Inzer of Longview, Bernice Stangle and her

husband Louis of Avinger, Ann Clayton of Longview; brother: Airal V. Slatter, Jr. and his wife,

Beverly of White Oak; as well as a number of great grandchildren; nieces; nephews; cousins;

friends; and extended family members that she had adopted throughout the years. She is

preceded in death by her parents, her first husband, Roger Kennon, and sister: Angela

McGilvray.

A memorial service in her honor will be held at 3:00 p.m., on Saturday, March 14, 2015, at the

Chapel of Lakeview Funeral Home, 5000 West Harrison Road, Longview, TX 75604.
