Born August 16, 1930 in Gainesboro, Tennessee. she was the daughter of the late Russell and Naomi Whitaker Watson. She was the wife of Arthur Kendall who preceded her in death. In her younger days Katherine worked for the By-Pass Deli which is now known as the Sandwich Shop of Columbia. Her last employment was at Cosmolab in Lewisburg and was a member of Mooresville Pike Baptist Church. Her son Joe of Cemetery Memorials said his mother was an artist and he received his artistic abilities from her. By reflecting of her pass, her daughter Kathie said when she was in elementary school her mother was diagnosed with M. S. and all the neighbors would come and assist her with things around the house. As Kathie continues reflecting on her pass she remembers one particular Christmas where she received a Cinderella watch and a gown that her mother made for her. Mrs. Katherine loved sewing and making things for her family. Joe and Kathie agreed that she was the best mother that any child could have.
She is survived by her children: Kathie Naomi Timothy Morris of Pulaski, Vickie David Darling of Muscle Shoals, AL, Joe H. Roberts and David W. Roberts of Columbia; three brothers: Odie "Buddy" Watson of Culleoka, Doris Polly Watson of Spring Hill and Larry Watson of Columbia; one sister: Betty Jean Cox of Columbia; grandchildren: Tracy Lynn Brown, Quinton Edward Reed, both of Pulaski, Chanel King of Clarksville, Crystal Birdwell of Muscle Shoals, AL, Cassandra Shedd of Pulaski, Alicia Roberts, Mike Roberts and Dixie Roberts; great grandchildren: Maegan, DeRico, Kalya Brown of Pulaski, Coby, Christen and Carlie Birdwell, all of Muscle Shoals, AL, Abbigail Shedd of Pulaski, Hayden and Hannah Roberts, Alijah Roberts, Robert and Jacob Stone; step-children: Shelley Britt, Zack and Chasity Morris; step-grandchildren: Bradley, Carleee and Presley Britt.
