Throughout her working life, Kathy was employed by Food Lion, where her steady dedication and reliability reflected the quiet strength with which she carried herself in all things.
Kathy found comfort and joy in life’s simple, lasting treasures. An avid reader, she valued the companionship of a good book and the calm it could bring. She also dearly loved her cats, whose presence added warmth and tenderness to her days.

Kathy is survived by her husband of 46 years, Ronnie Craft; daughter, Michelle Bates; two grandchildren, Jake and Ryan; and niece, Selena Bernard. She was predeceased by mother, Myrtle Pastana and brother, Wade Goff
