Kathryn Maria-Theresa Case
Kathryn Maria-Theresa Case

Kathryn Maria-Theresa Case, known to most as Kathy or kt, was born to Fayette B. and Aurelia M. (Massert) Case on April 29, 1954 in Merrill, WI.  Her family moved to Mohall, ND in 1959 and to Harvey, ND in 1962.  Kathy attended public grade school in Mohall and St. Cecilia Catholic School in Harvey.  She graduated from Harvey High School in 1972.  Kathy attended Lake Region Junior College and received a certificate as a Licensed Practical Nurse in 1978.  She began employment at the Cavalier County Memorial Hospital in Langdon, ND in August 1978.  kt continued her nursing career at Cavalier County Memorial until June 2007 when cancer left her disabled.           

Kathryn was a member of St. Alphonsus Catholic Church and was involved in the Wednesday morning discipleship group and Cavalier County Friends for Life.

Kathy will be remembered as a follower of Christ.  She once remarked that she had a man in her life, and that man was Jesus.  Her priorities  included her Catholic faith, family and friends, and her nursing profession.  Her feet traveled thousands of steps in 29 years to care for other, and her hands touched hundreds of people with loving kindness.

Kathy fough a gallant battle with cancer for two and a half years.  It was fitting that she passed into Glory on the Feast of All Souls, those for whom she offered her suffering.  She was loved by many.  She will be missed by many more.

Kathryn is survived by her mother, Aurelia of Harvey, ND; brothers Theodore of Merrill, WI; and Jeffrey of Minot, ND; and sister Elizabeth of Bismarck, ND; niece Amy (Diego) Washington and family of Anchorage, AK; nephews Paul Case and daughters of Bismarck, ND; and Sean (Julie) Case and family of Anchorage, AK.

She was preceded in death by her father Fayette and brothers; John and Thomas.

Kathy was called to Eternal Life by her Father in heaven on Friday, November 2, 2007.  Her body will be interred in Calvary Cemetery in Langdon, North Dakota.

VISITATION will take place from 2 to 5 pm at the Brooks Funeral Home on Tuesday November 6, 2007.  Visitation will also take place for one hour before the time of the funeral mass on Wednesday.

Condolences:

To the family of Kathryn Case

I am so sorry about your beloved Kathryn. I am very thankful and priviledged to have visited with her one last time while she was in hospice. I could see the love and caring by the nursing staff she knew so well and also her love for them.

I admired her devotion and calling to her nrusing career and helping others for so many years. I am sure the whole community will miss her.

I will remember forever the good times we had growing up in Harvey; having slumber parties with Kathryn and both our sisters. She was a wonderful friend with a great sense of humor.

She is at peace now and an angel of God. We will see her again someday as she welcomes us to our final home.

Love to all her family!!

Betsy and Gary Tipton


My thoughts & prayers go out to Kathy family.

I knew Kathy through Karen Restad. She was a lovely person who was always willing to lend a helping hand. She had taken care of me & my son when my son was born. She was a very caring person. I know the Good Lord will take care of her now.

Please accept our sincere sympathy as you say your final goodbyes to your beloved daughter and sister. Kathryn was such a kind & compassionate person. We feel priviledged to have shared time with her during our youth at HHS and in the years since then. Although we didn't see each other often-when we did it was like yesterday and we could converse comfortably. We can certainly see why she chose the profession that she did. The people of Langdon and the surrounding communities were blessed to have her caring for them and their families. It warms our hearts to hear of the love and compassion that was shown to Kathryn & her family during her illness.

We must remember that good friends are like stars...you don't always see them but you know that they are there. Kathryn will be one of the bright stars in the Heavens, watching over us though eternity. God Bless you during this difficult time. Blessed be the memory of Kathryn Case!

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Kathryn. I haven't seen her for many years, but she and I were in the same HHS Class of 1972. She ALWAYS had a sunny smile, a kind word for everyone, and the most gorgeous, long, bouncing hair. I was so envious of her beautiful mane! May God's love surround you during this time of sorrow.

Love, Wanda (Mayer) Salazar


My prayers and thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Now is a time to remember the happy moments which will help you.

We were so sorry to hear of Kathryn's death. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of her family and friends. It is always difficult to lose a loved one, especially one who's life has been cut short. May the memories of Kathryn help carry you through this difficult time. God Bless You.

Mike and Lynn English


I will always remember Kathy for the loving way she took care of our father, Alden Olson, he thought she was truly an angel. One thing I particularly remember with all the long extended hospital stays our father had, every day she would come in dads room and he would be readying the paper and tell her it was a good day because he wasn't in the obits and she would always laugh and tell him it was a good day because she wasn't in the married and engaged announcements and they would laugh. I have thought of her so many times through the years and the brightness she brought to his days and ours knowing she so lovingly took care of him. Kathy will be missed by many people. She truly was one of Gods angels.

Kathy (Olson) Gapp Iverson


My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I was so sorry to hear of Kathryn's passing. She has been in my prayers for many weeks as has been the family. Kathryn was a classmate of mine from HHS. She always had a smile for everyone. I rejoice in her faith and know that we will see that smile again on the other side! May God's arms be around you at this time of sorrow.
