years before she married Horace C. Nunnelee on July 18, 1938. After marriage,
they moved to California, where she began her happy and enjoyable teaching
career that lasted over 40 years.
She loved teaching and being around children. Even though she never had children
of her own, she became mother and grandmother to many. Up until the time she
moved back to Oklahoma, she kept in contact with a lot of her former students.
She loved her country and was very proud to be an Oklahoman and a citizen of the
United States. One of her most exciting and happiest times were traveling around
the world and visiting different countries with her most cherished friends in
California who knew her as Kay. Her friends were so important to her and she
treasured all their times together and could talk about them and their travels
for hours.
Katherine returned to Oklahoma in June 2001 as she always considered this home.
She resided at the Homestead in Alva and loved it there and enjoyed the people.
In March 2005, she moved into Share Convalescent Center. She considered Share
her school and all the people who worked there her students.
Besides her parents, she was preceded in death by an infant sister.
Katherine is survived by her extended family, Steven and Connie Redgate, Ryan,
Dacia, Traben and Tayen Redgate, and Dusty, Monica and Kyler Shepard, all of
Waynoka, and a host of friends.
