Kathy Busch Obituary
Kathy Busch, beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, passed away peacefully on August 20, 2025, at the age of 75, surrounded by the love of her family.
Born in Marysville, Kansas, on October 5, 1949, Kathy lived a life marked by kindness, strength, and unwavering dedication to her family and loved ones. Her warm heart and generous spirit touched everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.
Kathy was the kind of person who always put others first. She found joy in spending time with her loved ones and had a special gift for making those around her feel cared for and supported.
Kathy is survived by her son: Craig Busch and his wife: Angie Busch, of Omaha, Nebraska. She leaves behind two grandchildren: Lexi Busch of Omaha, Nebraska, and Dalton Busch of Kihei, Hawaii; as well as one great-grandchild expected in November. She is also survived by her sisters: Linda Nemechek and Brenda Busch; and many nieces and nephews all of whom will carry her memory forward with love and gratitude.
A family memorial service will be held at a later date.
Though she is no longer with us, Kathy’s legacy of love, compassion, and quiet strength will remain in the hearts of all who knew her.
Services Pending.
