In Loving Memory of Kathryn Potts, November 19, 1947—July 22, 2020

     Beloved daughter of God, our Father, born into this life and cherished by Arthur and Lenore (Tillman) Pouget. Loving mother to Jeannine (Jim) McCarty. Beloved sister of Rev. Richard Pouget (deceased), Robert Pouget, John (Kay) Pouget, Denise Tietze, Barbara (David) Engler, Patricia Gonyeau, Andrea (Stephen) Roddy, Brian (Beverly) Pouget, Mary Pouget, Anita (William) Kennedy, and Jane Elizabeth Pouget (deceased). Loving aunt to Melissa, Emily, Claire, Anne, Cynthia, Amy, Matthew, Paul, Jacquelyn, Shawn, Fr. Patrick, Allison, Adam, Megan, April, Brendan, Kevin, Christopher, and Rachel. Cherished great-aunt to many nieces and nephews. She was blessed with “bonus” grandchildren Candice and Kenny, and great-grandchildren Shaelyn, Kendra, RaeLynn, and Colton.

     Kathryn was a woman of great faith who dedicated her life to the Catholic Church, both with her beautiful voice as a cantor and almost 30 years of bookkeeping. We are confident she was no stranger to Jesus when He welcomed her home.

 Kathryn was not only our bookkeeper, but also our friend and coworker. Kathryn was the type of woman who always took the time to stop and chat with you about your family as well as what was going on with her family. She joined our “team” in 2009 and became a permanent Tuesday fixture working many Tuesday’s to the wee hours of the morning. Her expertise and knowledge was appreciated by all. She assisted the parish and the school as well as all the staff members. Kathryn was well loved and will surely be missed by many at St. Val’s, as well as all the other parishes she assisted. Rest in peace dear Kathryn.

Let not your hearts be troubled, believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, would I have told you that I go and prepare a place for you? And when I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.
