Kathryn Woodward Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 24, 2022.
The family of Kathryn Joyce Woodward, 44, is deeply saddened to share the news of her unexpected death due to diabetic complications on August 16, 2022, in Wilkes-Barre Township, PA.

"Katie," was born on February 2, 1978, in Northridge, CA, just minutes after her twin sister Samantha. The world became a better place as Katie's light and love shined brightly from that day forward. She was always at the ready to help others and to bring joy where it was needed most. To all who had the privilege to love and be loved by Kathryn, we are comforted by the memories of her laughter and her sparkle, despite her earthly light going out too soon.

Her heavenly light now shines upon those who survive her, including her cherished sons Vincent Carl Bernard Casale and Nicholas Edward Bailey Casale, loving father to their children Vincent Casale, her parents Barbara and Randall Woodward, her twin sister Samantha Holmes, her younger brother Joseph Woodward, her grandmother Beverly Graney, and many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

A memorial service will be held on Friday, August 26, 2022 from 6pm - 8pm at George A. Strish, Inc. Funeral Home, 105 N. Main Street, Ashley, PA 18706.

Well-wishers are welcome to make a donation to a favorite charity that helps make the world a better place, just as our Katie did.
