Kathleen Chandler Obituary

A star that burnt out way before her time. Kathleen lit up every room she ever entered and never met a stranger. I miss her so very much, but I have the treasured memories that will last forever

I am sure Kathleen is now continuing her good works as an angel in heaven. John, Frances & Claire, you are in my thoughts and prayers. May we all remember her well. Julie Hicks

Sweet Francis,
How our families hearts weep for you on this sad day in your young life. We simply cannot comprehend your loss. I am so grateful to have had the JOY of knowing you through my niece Shelby Jordan and all the times we shared with you at Pickwick, Jackson and countless get togethers both at Celia & Franks home as well as my Mothers for special occasions. Francis you are a remarkable young lady and reading the condolences of friends of your Mother explains her immeasurable influence on your beautiful life. I am equally thankful to have been able to call Kathleen a friend and remember with sweetness her kind and loving ways when we gathered at St. Luke's and shared hugs, laughs, engaging conversation and inspiration. I am praying for you today during the service and trust you will sense in a very extraordinary way the presence of the Holy Spirit and be renewed with faith and hope. I so wish I were closer to support with my presence, however you are quite near in my every thought today. As we said at St. Luke's upon greeting " Peace"..... May His peace reign in your heart today dear one. Our family love you and thank you for being such a blessing to our lives and homes. Until I see you again I remain.
Ever Prayerful,
Chuck & Colin Carothers

Dear Chandler and Wills Family,
I can not express what a loss everyone feels at the passing of Kathleen. I personally enjoyed growing up with Wills family spending many summers at the Arkansas lakes. I viewed Kathleen almost like a sister we spent so much time together growing up. No one had a better laugh and keen sense of humor than Kathleen. At any occasion Kathleen could make everyone feel at home and laugh.
I know I as well as everyone will miss her greatly. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone in both families.

It was an absolute pleasure to have Mrs. Chandler in my life this past year. She was an absolute angel and joy to take care of! She always had a smile on her face no matter the situation. I will truly miss her and her sweet soul! Please let me know if y'all need anything. Love,
Lauren
