Catherine "Kay" Eichorst was the wife of the late William Charles Eichorst Sr. She was the mother of Tommy Eichorst, David Eichorst, Jimmy Eichorst, and the late William C Eichorst Jr.

Her grandchildren are William "Bill" Eichorst, Kevin Eichorst, Adam Eichorst, Amy Eichorst, Kelly Eichorst Hulsey, Bryan Eichorst and Katelyn Eichorst. She has two great grand-children.

She was a loving wife, mother and grandmother who enjoyed traveling, going to movies, cooking and spending time with her grandchildren. Despite the miles between us, she never failed to send cards for special occasions. She enjoyed passing down some of her favorite recipes which included Rice Krispies-coated chicken breast and homemade banana splits. She would always laugh and say that when she first got married, she couldn't "boil water." However, after having four boys, she quickly learned how to cook out of sheer necessity.

Kay grew up in an orphanage and always said that it made her stronger. She had a younger brother who passed away during their stay in the orphanage. She often told me stories about how she would sneak fresh tomatoes out of the garden when the nuns weren't looking. She said they were the best tomatoes she had ever eaten in her life.

She was a nursing assistant who nursed her own husband back to health after he was wounded in World War II. She is best remembered for her sweet smile, hearty laugh and beautiful red hair.
