Kathy Ann Andersen passed away suddenly and unexpectedly On February 22, 2006, 
of a complication of her heart at 42 years of age. 

She was born on August 19, 1963 in Hanover, Pennsylvania. As a young child and 
as an adult, she loved music and played the flute and the piano. Later in her 
life her talent came to benefit Toledo High School choir students. As a 
talented young woman, she graduated from South Western High School in 1981. 
Immediately following high school, she joined the Marine Reserves, and served 
her country for a short time in South Carolina until she was honorably 
discharged for a medical reason. Following her service, Kathy moved to Lake 
Tahoe, Nevada. It was there, that she met Richard Andersen, who soon after 
became her loving and devoted husband. They moved to California, where Kathy 
gave birth to her son, Eric and soon after, her daughter Dana. In 1990, her 
family settled in Lewis County. She was baptized with her husband into the 
Winlock Seventh Day Adventist Church. 

At the time of her death, Kathy was attending classes at Lower Columbia 
Community College for the purpose of transferring to WSU to earn a degree in 
business. She worked as a realtor and thrived as a student. Kathy was devoted 
not only to academics, but as a student of life. Her capacity for love and
