Kathy (Larson) Doyle, of Cicero, who loved God and her family more than life itself, went home to be with the Lord on Sunday, Nov. 29.

She was a proud mother to five children and special Grammy to 14 grandchildren and one great grandchild.

Her husband of 47 years, Jim, is her high school sweetheart from Princeton.

They relocated from Noblesville to Cicero earlier this year to be closer to their church family at Cicero Christian Church and to their daughter, Keely.

Nothing was more important to Kathy than her faith in Jesus Christ. It was evident in the way she treated people, served her neighbors and cared for her family and friends. She devoted her life to volunteer work, serving countless women on Tres Dias retreat weekends, where she was dearly loved.

Born to Kathryn (Dunning) and Richard Larson of Francisco on June 4, 1949, she grew up in rural Indiana and graduated from Princeton High School in 1967.

Jim and Kathy were married March 16, 1968, in Princeton.

Their five children — Chris, Heidi, Holly, Ryan and Keely — all born in Indiana, live in the greater Indianapolis area and one in Florida.

A stay-at-home Mom, Kathy prided herself in raising children and grandchildren, while keeping an immaculate showplace home. She found time for reading, crafts, journaling, church and sports in the few spare moments she had. Kathy was an avid Colts, Irish and Pacers fan.

In addition to her husband, five children, 14 grandchildren and one great grandchild, Kathy is survived by three brothers — David Larson, Gary Larson and Greg Wright — all of Princeton.

A celebration of her life will be held at 11 am. Saturday, Dec. 5, at Cicero Christian Church, 1715 Stringtown Pike in Cicero.
