Catherine Fenninger Obituary
Catherine "Kay" Fenninger, of Erlanger, formerly of Lancaster, PA, went home to be with Jesus on August 29, 2017. The daughter of Italian immigrants, Kay grew up in a large family with nine siblings. She met and married the love of her life, Carl Fenninger. Together they raised two daughters, and created a good life. Kay taught herself how to sew and passed on some of her knowledge to her grandchildren. She was also known as one of the best apple pie and chocolate chip cookie makers around. Her pies are legendary in the family, and she delighted in sharing those recipes with her daughters and granddaughters. Kay is preceded in death by her loving husband, Carl Fenninger; child, Kathy Lynn; 4 sisters and 3 brothers. She will be remembered with love by those who survive her; daughters, Pat (Art) DiMartile and Janet (Michael) Romanowski; grandchildren, Jessica (Nathan) Bargen, Victoria DiMartile, Claire (Cameron) Hershberger, Max, Spencer and Molly Romanowski; and great-grandchild Bruno Bargen. Visitation will be at Linnemann Funeral Home in Erlanger, KY on September 2 from 1:30PM - 2:30PM with a service to follow. Burial will take place at a later date in Kinzers, PA.

Kay was a kind, gentle soul who greeted members of United Christian Volunteers most warmly during our weekly visits.
She will be missed greatly by those who knew & loved her. Our loss is Heaven's gain.
May God's love, & the memories you hold close, sustain you in the days ahead.
