Obituary of Kathy Sue Gorman

Kathy Sue Blair was born on July 4, 1951 in Monroe, Michigan.   She was one of six children born from the union of the late David Blair and the late Jean (Johnson) Blair.   Kathy attended Erie Mason High School.  

As a young woman, Kathy, was quite the wild child.   She was well-known for her love of socializing and passion for friends.   She was very loyal and could be counted on by her circle of friends whenever someone was in a pinch.  

Loving by nature, Kathy, would be blessed with two children of her own.  These children would further enrich her life by providing her with four grandchildren.   Kathy was very devoted to the needs of her grandchildren and she was very thankful for the opportunity to make up for lost time.  

She received her spiritual nourishment by attending Sweetwater Rock Church.  She enjoyed reading her Bible and further advancing her knowledge by watching Christian programing on the television.

On occasion, Kathy, enjoyed a visit to the casino and trying her hand at a game of chance.
