Kathy was born May 13, 1941, in Chicago, the daughter of Norbert and Corinne (Kottman) White. On August 4, 1962, she married Robert E. Lenzi in Chicago. She was a devoted Catholic who loved her family and husband dearly. She was a homemaker and took pride in making her house a home. Kathy loved to bake and cook, being known for her apple slices and having a homecooked meal on the table 7 days a week. She also loved to read and do word searches. In her later years, she developed a love for painting and coloring while in independent living. Most of all she loved being a mother, grandmother, and great grandmother.
