Kathleen "Kathy" Rose Cleland Joiner, passed away on Monday, March 21, 2022, in Hammond, Louisiana, at the age of 75. She was born on June 22, 1946, in Bogalusa, Louisiana to the late Ethel Revere Cleland and the late John Edward Cleland. A resident of Ponchatoula, Kathy was an artist whose love for her family, friends, music, the Tangipahoa River, and Louisiana culture was frequently expressed through both her works of art and the vibrant spirit in which she lived. Combined with her raw talent, Kathy possessed an adventurous and entrepreneurial spirit that led her to successfully manage Lloyd E. Joiner Construction Company and start her own sign business.

Dear Bonnie and family, was so saddened to learn of Kathy's passing. She was such a wonderful loving person. Way back in 1988 she and Mr Lloyd blessed my family more than people know. She was an open example of being a real Christian!!!
