Kathleen Jennings Obituary

JENNINGS, KATHLEEN (MARTIN), formerly of Cranston died on January 27, 2006 at the Cherry Hill Manor in Johnston. She was 83.

Mrs. Jennings was the daughter of the late John E. (Jack) and Katharine T. Martin. Jack Martin was the school sports editor of the Providence Journal for many years. Mrs. Jennings was the sister of the late Adele M. Otis and Harold T. Martin. She and her late husband, Joseph E. Jennings were married for 50 years.

Her survivors include sons, John, Gerald and Thomas; daughters-in-law Karen and Katherine; six grandchildren and her sister, Jacqueline M. Wright.

Mrs. Jennings was an alumna of Bryant College. Among her professional experiences, she was especially proud of her work with the National Foundation March of Dimes. She was also very active with Cranston High School Alumni activities for the class of 1940. A photograph of Mrs. Jennings and her sisters published in The Journal that same year under the caption 'Three Smart Girls - The Martin Sisters' captured her enthusiasm and spirit.

Arrangements will be private in accordance with her wishes.
