Kathleen Redd Obituary

Kathleen Ann Redd

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Kathy Redd, who left us Sunday, Nov. 24, 2024, after a courageous battle with glioblastoma. Born Jan. 9, 1962, in Endicott, New York, she lived a life filled with love, dedication, and service.

Kathy earned her associate's degree in nursing and later went on to receive her bachelor's degree from Ohio Northern University. She devoted 30 years of her life to being a nurse, which she embraced with compassion and unwavering care for others. A highlight of her career was serving as a helicopter flight nurse, a role that showcased her exceptional skill and commitment to helping those in need. Beyond her professional accomplishments, her greatest pride and joy was being a mother to her four sons, a role she cherished above all else.

A valued member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Huntersville, North Carolina, Kathy found strength and peace in her faith and served her community with love and devotion.

She enjoyed spending time with her family, birding, traveling the world with her friends, and sharing moments with her beloved dog, Bailey. Her adventurous spirit, love of nature, and devotion to those she cared for were a source of inspiration to everyone who knew her.

She is survived by the father of her children, Rick Redd; four sons, Ryan, Taylor, Connor and Corey; two grandchildren, Parker and Chloe; two brothers, Scott Howard and Will Howard; sister, Eileen Howard; and her mother, Sandra Thorderson.

A memorial service to honor her life will be at 10 a.m. Saturday, Dec. 14, 2024, at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 7032 McIlwaine Road, Huntersville, NC 28078.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to The Glioblastoma Foundation (https://glioblastomafoundation.org/) in her memory.

Her kindness, strength, and love will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew her.
