Obituary for Katherine Ann Salie
KATHERINE ANN SALIE was born on January 12, 1952 in Pipestone, Minnesota, to Edward and Charlotte “Nelvye” (Van Peursem) Salie. She was baptized at the American Reformed Church in Woodstock and raised in Woodstock until the age of 21. Kathy attended school in Pipestone with the special education class. In 1977, Kathy moved to Hiawatha Manor in Pipestone when it was built, where she lived until moving to the Odyssey House in Pipestone. Kathy worked at Progess, Inc. working in various places in the organization and loved every minute! She moved into the Good Samaritan Communities of Pipestone in 2014 where she continued to live until her death on Thursday, March 17, 2016 at the age of 64 years, two months and five days.
Kathy enjoyed people; she always had a smile on her face and a hug to share! She loved making crafts, especially hook rugs and pictures. She re-wrote all of the scriptures and hymns from the previous week’s church services – she had notebooks and notebooks full. Kathy also enjoyed walking and riding an exercise bike.
Kathy is lovingly remembered by her sisters, Janice L Hinchman of Plymouth, Minnesota and Dorothy Van Dyke of Sioux Falls, South Dakota; nieces, Kim (Bruce) Hassett of Mound, MN, Cheryl Lyng, Laurell Van Dyke, and Delyn Van Dyke all of Altamonte Springs, Florida; nephews, Charles (Deb) Van Dyke of Tea, South Dakota, Larry (Karen) Van Dyke of Valley Springs, South Dakota, and Keith (Rita) Hinchman of Minnesota and Texas.
