Oregon.
Katie was born April 20, 1939, in Radisson, Wisconsin to John and Claudine Schuck. She married John Mathews in 1955. They were married for 51 years.
Katie could accomplish anything she set her mind to and was not afraid to get her hands dirty. Katie loved to hunt and fish. She was the one who always shot the deer or elk. She also loved to cook Thanksgiving dinner for all of her children and
grandchildren. She would do anything for them. Katie enjoyed traveling, exploring new places, and riding on roller coasters. With one day’s notice, she would drop everything and travel to South Korea, Germany, Arizona, or wherever her kids or grandkids were. But most of all, Katie was fun loving and could talk to anyone. She instantly brought a smile to people’s faces. Katie had a home daycare for many years and then drove rental cars for Hertz until she was 78 years young.
Katie is preceded by her son, John V., and her husband, John. She is survived by her children, Joy, Jody, Judy and Jerry; 11 grandchildren; 25 great-grandchildren; and 2 great-great-grandchildren.
