Katharine Nora Trocolla, known affectionately as Kathy, passed away on February 26, 2024, at the age of 82 in Paris, TN.
Kathy was born on November 28, 1941, in Stamford, CT to her late parents Anna and John Stuart. Kathy was a dedicated teacher in the Danbury, CT school system after graduating from Danbury Teachers College.
Kathy was a kind and generous soul, always ready to extend a helping hand to those in need. Her passion for charity work was evident as she was actively involved in various community charities. Beyond her professional life, Kathy found joy in cooking and baking, often hosting gatherings where she would serve delicious meals and tea party luncheons.
In her leisure time, Kathy enjoyed antiquing and refinishing furniture alongside her beloved husband, Daniel. Her hobby not only brought her joy but also allowed her to bond with her husband over shared interests.
Kathy will be deeply missed by her loving husband, Daniel; her sons, Richard and Charles; her siblings, Anna Carriero, Charles Stuart (Lillian), James Stuart, Michael Stuart (Luann); her brother-in-law, James Trocolla (Kathie); sister-in-law, Nancy Glaser (Neal); as well as numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and of course her loyal dogs Biscotti, Bigdog and Scooter.
In addition to her parents, she is also preceded in death by her brother Richard; brother & sister-in-law, John and Bertha Stuart; brother-in-law, Frank Carriero; and nephews, Johnnie and Ron Stuart.
