Milwaukee, WI – Age 66 found peace on April 9th, 2022 in her home, surrounded by her loving family, after many years of battling various health issues.

Kathy was born on June 6th, 1955 in Milwaukee, WI. Kathy was an angel on earth. She was kind, sweet and loving to everyone she knew. Kathy never spoke one bad thing about anyone. She never forgot an anniversary or a birthday. Despite all the pain she was in her whole life, she always made sure to check in with her sister, brother, nieces and nephews, always thinking of them and how they were doing, even over her own pain. Kathy met David in her apartment building 11 years ago and ever since then, they became inseparable. David was the best fiancé to Kathy. He took care of all of her medical needs, including the last few weeks at home giving her dialysis and hospice care. We are truly grateful for the love David showed Kathy. He was the love of her life. Kathy had a love for her family, music and her favorite shows, like I Love Lucy, Full House, Family Affair and Leave it to Beaver, which her and David watched together every night.

She will be dearly missed by her beloved fiancé David Wester. Dear sister Sonia (Tom) LaFauci. Brother Jeff (Nancy) Kowalczuk. Nephews and nieces Billy Bennett, Mark Bennett, Rachael (Nick) Contreras, Erica (Edmund Klimek) Freeman, Nick Kowalczuk, Michael Kowalczuk, Rebecca (Mikey) Bewley. Great nephews and nieces Sabrina, Samantha and Jake Bennett, Jackson, Max and Alex Contreras, Poppy and Pippa Klimek and Blake Bewley. She was also a great, great aunt to Cayson, Kazimir and Everly Bennett. Preceded in death by her mother Dorothy Bennett, sister Sharon Bennett, father Fedor Kowalczuk, and other loved ones.

Visitation to celebrate Kathy’s life will be on Monday, April 18th, 2022 from 11am- 12pm at Draeger Langendorf Funeral home with a service to follow at 12pm. A private interment will follow at Agudas Achim Cemetery.

I lost my parents withing two years of each other and Mike and his staff not only took very good care of my parents but the family. It is very obvious that they take their jobs very seriously. I don\’t know how they do it but thank God for people like them. Thanks for everything! Mike thank you! You made this easier for me. Remember me and mother was like a married couple!
