On Friday, January 9, 2015, in the comfort of the home she so laboriously and lovingly cared for, Kathleen quietly slipped away to meet the family that preceded her in death.
She was born on October 12, 1935 during the earthquakes that her father always felt she brought with her.
She was educated in Helena, graduating from Helena High in 1953.
She then lived for a time in Seattle, where some of her children were born before returning to Helena for the rest of her life.
Her greatest joy, besides her grandchildren, was the yard and home that she worked so hard to maintain in such a beautiful fashion. One of her many passions was her association with the Candlelight Group.
Kathleen was preceded in death by her parents, Ace and Doris Kindrick, her brother, Thom, a daughter, Loreen Patricia, and sons, Stephen Louis and Rev. Stuart Ignatius.
She is survived by her sister, Patricia, brother, Jeffrey, her husband, Bill, her daughters, Jennifer and Amy and husband, Tom, her son, Scott and his wife, Kathy, granddaughter, Jessica, and her husband, Cliff, grandson, Trevor, and her great grandson, Matthew.
Please make memorials in Kathleen’s name to the Lewis and Clark Human Society, 1712 E. Custer Ave., Helena, MT 59602, or to Hospice of St. Peter’s, 2427 Broadway, Helena, MT 59601. Please visit below to offer the family a condolence or to share a memory of Kathleen.

Kathleen, Though we haven’t seen each other often since our freshman year in high school, we remained good friends. I will always miss you.
To Pat and other family members I did not know, I offer my condolences. Surely Kathleen will be missed; but we all have precious memories of her to keep in our hearts forever.
