Catherine Elaine Nelson
Obituary
Catherine Elaine Nelson died Mach 17, 2020 from Multiple
Myeloma in Newton, Kansas.
She was very brave in her efforts to overcome this cancer
for many years after her diagnosis.
She grew up in Wichita and Andover with her parents Louise
Trisler Ester Carter and Dick Estes and later with her stepfather Don Carter
and her mother.
She had a long career with Pizza Hut. She went back to
school and became a LPN and worked in the community nursing homes. She retired
to nurse her own illness and to briefly move to Scottsdale to put her father
and stepmother's passing in order. She found comfort and friends and
familiarity with her move to Newton.
Thanks always to her friend Connie and her supportive
family, Eileen, Sam and Jean who supported her in her final battle.
Survivors include Linda Redmon Ellithorpe and along with her
pets.
A memorial service will be held at a later time under the
direction of Livingston Funeral Home, Kingman.
In lieu of flowers donations will be accepted in her name at
Hopestone Cancer Support, 206 SE Frank Phillips Blvd., Bartlesville, OK 74003.
