Kathryn was born in Mount Vernon on June 3, 1958 to Raymond Dean and Janet Isabelle (Frye) Tucker, who both preceded her in death along with her life partner, Rick Jensen, and sister, Diane Tucker. She was a part of the East Knox High School class of ’76, and had worked in dietary at the Knox Community Hospital, and for the Gambier Deli.
She loved watching anything that involved her kids and grandkids, football, demolition derbies, and dirt track racing, listening to country music (especially Toby Keith), cooking, word search, and gardening (even though Rick made her gardens too big).

A funeral service will take place at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, January 3, 2026, at the Fischer Funeral Home in Danville. Pastor Andy Beatty will officiate. Burial will follow in Amity Cemetery. Visitation will be one hour prior to the service.
