Kathryn completed her nursing studies at Portland State University and practiced as a registered nurse in Oregon, Nevada, New Mexico, and Washington with a majority of her time spent working in Port Orchard, Bremerton, and Bellingham, WA. She excelled in intensive care and was much loved by those under her leadership. She suffered and fought hard to conquer the multiple illnesses that came her way and her attitude was one of courage and acceptance without self-pity.

Foster, sister, Karolyn K. Baker, and seven grandchildren.

Kathryn was preceded in death by her brother, Kerry D. Foster and her father. We will miss you Kathryn, you have been a bright light in our lives. A Celebration of Kathryn’s life will be held at Westford Funeral Home on Thursday, March 15th at 1 PM followed by a reception across the street at Westford’s Broadway Hall, 1300 Broadway.
