Kathleen "Kathy" A. Ault (née: Nadler) of Wright City passed away under Veteran's Administration Hospice Care on February 7, 2026 following a lengthy illness. She was 73 years of age.

Kathy was born in Washington, MO on March 1, 1952, to Theo and Elda Nadler of Wright City. A graduate of Wright City High School, she served her country in the United States Air Force from 1971 to 1979 as a Russian language specialist with the National Security Agency. Kathy was an avid reader, enjoyed tending her lawn, and was fond of growing Roma tomatoes in her garden. She always kept part of her yard in a natural state to provide for birds, pollinators, and other wildlife as she believed it was her duty to help support nature.

She is survived by her husband of 50 years, Bill, her daughter, Kris Becker and her husband Steve, her son, John, her daughter, Linda, and three grandsons, Tim, Matt, and Nick Becker. She is also survived by her sister-in-law, Jane Nadler, sister, Betty Athey and her husband Ed, several nephews, a niece, and other family members.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Theo and Elda Nadler and her brother, Ted Nadler.
