Kress & Co. in downtown Roanoke during World War II and married her sweetheart Bill when he returned from service as a flight navigator in the Navy during the war. They settled in Roanoke County where they successfully raised four rambunctious boys to be (at least) decent husbands, fathers, and Godly men. Nothing was more important to Katherine than her family, and it was often said of her that if you wanted to see what an angry momma bear protecting her cubs was like, just try messing with one of her boys! Her mother-in-law likened her to a mother hen guarding her chicks. In every sense of the word, Katherine was a dedicated wife and mother. Her dedication was centered on her strong Christian faith. She grew up attending Oak Grove Brethren church. She raised her family while very active at Cave Spring Methodist Church, and spent the last twenty-seven years of her life as a member of Cave Spring Baptist. She loved her Bible studies, playing the piano, and singing old hymns. "The Bible says" was her mantra, and she lived by it.
