Kathleen Pearce

Youngsville

Kathleen Pearce, 67, of Youngsville passed away suddenly in her home Monday, August 22, 2016.

Originally from Centereach, New York, Kathleen was a loving wife of 44 years to Herbert W. Pearce, also of Centereach. Kathleen spent a good part of her life raising four children — Heather, Tammi, Ryan, and Connor. She also welcomed two sons-in-law into her life, Gregory and Frankie, as well as a future daughter-in-law, Samantha. Kathleen’s greatest treasures are her five grandchildren — Colin, Sophie, Aidan, Tanner, and Brennan, all of whom she loved to spoil endlessly. “That,” she said, “is Gramma’s job!”

Kathleen’s favorite pastimes included sewing, cooking and reading.  From the time she was a child Kathleen loved to sew — clothing, quilts, costumes — and had a work table fashioned just for those creative times. She frequently viewed cooking shows and scoured magazines for a new recipe to try, and no holiday was complete without a box of homemade cookies.  Kathleen was never without a novel within hands reach. “There’s nothing like getting lost in a good book,” she would say.

Kathleen will also be greatly missed by her brothers, sisters, and friends whom she fondly referred to as “family.”

A celebration of Kathleen’s life was held on Friday, August 26, 2016 at the home. No additional services are planned.
