Born July 31, 1949 to parents Edith and Frank Self, Kathy is survived by her loving husband Bill; son Darren Sutherland (Kathie) and daughter Nancy (Mark) Kolesar all of Brandon. Also missing their Grandma and Nana are her cherished grandsons Cole, Reid and Dylan Sutherland and Nate and Mason Kolesar, who are all the loves of her life.

Kathy made many exceptional friends along life’s journey, none more special than her friend of over 45 years Kathy (Bob) Clelland. There are so many wonderful memories to cherish in life’s relationships, and Kathy cherished them all. At Kathy’s request there will be no formal service, and immediate family have celebrated a life well lived as they interred her ashes at the Brandon Cemetery Columbarium on Friday November 1, 2019.
