Kathryn Gerth Daspit, beloved sister, mother, grandmother, and friend, passed away on Sunday, July 7, 2019 at her home with family. She was a native of New Orleans for 33 years, and has been a resident of Slidell for the last 41. To share a smile and laugh, Kathryn was always ready with a joke even if it was at her own expense (or one you had heard a thousand times). Kathy was the eldest daughter of the late Ruland and Dorothy Gerth. She has survived by her sister, Nancy Penny, one time husband, Edwin Daspit and their 3 children (Noah, Jon & Nancy) as well as her 6 grandchildren. Her life will be celebrated with a small service on Wednesday, July 17, 2019 at Lake Lawn Metairie Funeral Home, 5100 Pontchartrain Blvd., New Orleans, at 2:00 PM.
