Born in Union Hospital at Dover on July 30, 1952, Kathy was a daughter of the late Donald and Kathryn Spittle Maurer.
She was a 1971 graduate of Dover High School and began her career as a bus driver with Harcatus-Head Start before joining the New Philadelphia City Schools for more than 25 years. Kathy loved her job and enjoyed being with the students she had the pleasure of driving through the years.
In her free time, Kathy enjoyed crocheting, sewing, painting, working puzzles, making crafts, attending craft shows as a buyer and a vendor, and caring for her parrot, Kermit. She also enjoyed a good board game and card game with family; often showing her competitive side and making sure everyone followed her rules.
