Kate was born to Duane and Olive (Pouley) Dickerson on Horton Road in Blissfield and lived her entire life in Blissfield, Riga and Adrian. She attended Victorsville Elementary School, and in 1942 Kate graduated from Blissfield High School.
Kate was employed by Sprunk Grocery Store and later at Faraday in the war effort. In 1946, she married Pete Noelanders, and he preceded her in death after 61 years of marriage. Pete and Kate purchased a farm on Sharp Road in Adrian in 1950 and raised their three children there. That farm remained their home their entire adult lives.
