Katherine E. vonDohrmann Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

PITTSBURG — Katherine E. von Dohrmann, ‘Katie’, 44, passed away peacefully on Thursday, Aug. 17, 2017, at the Coös County Nursing Home after a courageous lifelong battle with brain cancer. Katie was born in Plattsburgh, NY, on Feb. 15, 1973, a daughter to Albert and Elizabeth (Taeger) vonDohrmann. She attended Pittsburg High School, graduating in 1991. While there, she enjoyed working in the cafeteria. She also enjoyed many summers at Deer Mountain Campground spending time with her grandparents. Anyone who had met Katie knew her to always have a smile on her face. Katie was an avid Boston Red Sox fan, enjoyed making latch hook rugs, doing puzzles and playing the board game ‘Sorry.’ Katie became a resident at the Coös County Nursing Home in 2012. She was an active participant and enjoyed all of the wonderful activities organized by the staff. She most enjoyed Thursday Bingo games and relied heavily on her many Bingo charms for luck. Katie received much love and compassion from the caring staff and this was reflected by the smile on her face while roaming the halls. Katie's years at CCNH were also enriched by the times she spent with her good friends, doing her nails and working on crafts. Katie is lovingly remembered by her Dad, Bert von Dohrmann and step-mom, Kris; and her three sisters, Elizabeth Dubois and her husband Kris, Christine Cote and her husband Gene, Jennifer Jacobs and her husband Jesse, step-sister Sabrina Meunier and her husband Josh, along with her 7 nieces and nephews. She is deeply missed by a special niece-in-law, as well as her adopted step-grandparents. She is predeceased by her mom, Elizabeth von Dohrmann in 2004, her maternal grandmother, Kathleen Taeger, and paternal grandparents, Albert and Katherine von Dohrmann. There will be no public calling hours. A graveside memorial service will be held in the Pittsburg Hollow Cemetery on Hill Road on Saturday, Oct. 21, 2017, at 11 a.m., followed by a reception for all family and friends at the Farnham Memorial church hall in Pittsburg.
