Kathleen Patricia Curry went home to Heaven on May 13, 2023 at Monument Care Center in Scottsbluff, NE.
Katie was born May 12, 1964 to Robert F. Curry and Jean (McGinley) Curry in Chadron, Nebraska. At the age of 5 she moved with her parents to Eugene, Oregon where she attended school and special needs services until she was 20. The family moved back to Nebraska, and after a time in Gordon, Katie moved to Scottsbluff to live in a group home.
She enjoyed many activities such as camping and fishing with her family, listening to music, and loved to go shopping. She had a passion for jewelry and was always asking to get her nails done. She loved watching sitcoms and musicals, her favorite of which was the movie Grease.
Katie was special in many ways, especially when it came to her sense of humor. She liked playing tricks on those around her and had an infectious laugh and smile.
She was preceded in death by grandparents Fay and Jessie Curry, Mary E. Frederickson, Jess and Doris McGinley; and her father Robert Curry.
She is survived by her mother Jean Curry-Hess and Ron Hess; aunt Judy and Zale Quible; uncle Tim and Arlana McGinley; aunt Mary and Dan Carlson, and many cousins and friends.
Grave side services will be held in the Gordon Cemetery at a later date. Bridgeman Funeral Home and Cremation Services in Scottsbluff has assisted the family with arrangements.
