“In life, we loved you dearly, in death we love you still. In our hearts you hold a place, no one else will ever fill.” St George, Utah Kathy Marie Andersen Larsen Age 69 passed away Saturday morning 11/7/2020 at her daughters home peacefully in her sleep. She was born in Wadena, Minnesota 11/29/1950 on her parents farm. Preceeded in death by her partents Louis F. Andersen and Waneta (Son) (Andersen) Moell. She was raised in Layton, Utah and lived in West Valley City, Utah most of her life. She was an accountant for the Salt Lake City Airport Authority where she retired. She is survived by her three children Travis J Larsen (Sandy), Brandon D Larsen (Tina) and Brittany D McBride (Troy). Five sisters Phyllis Phillips (Duane), Lois Hammon (Charles), Sharon Gentry, Linda Myers and Mary Larsen (Tony). Six grandchildren Alexandria Marie Larsen, Nathan McBride, Ashlee McBride, Zachery Larsen, Garrett Larsen and Bryce Larsen. She was a loving, caring, hard working mom, grandmother and friend to all who met her. She was always there for her children even when she was working multiple jobs to support them on her own. She was sassy and full of spunk and could talk to anyone about anything for hours. She thoroughly loved music, dancing, Westerns, and socializing. Those who met her the last few years will remember her by diet coke, caramels, chocolate and her trying to bribe them in giving her a cigarette. She made us laugh through her antics and we will remember her always. She has six amazing grandchildren who she loved spending time with and would allow them to overrun her entire house when they were with her, even if it meant watching the same shows all day and night long. She loved life and meeting new people and will truly be missed. We would also like to give special thanks to Troy McBride for all his support, the love he had for our mom as well as all the times he made her laugh and razzed her to make her life a little less dreary. Nathan McBride who moved in with her when she first became sick so she could stay at home, and then took care of her house when she had to move to St. George because of her health. Ashlee McBride who for the last three years took care of her house so our mom could keep what little independence she had left. Louis Cammacho for all the support and help he gave Brittany, even though the first time mom had a breathing attack and he was home alone with her she thought he was going to leave and never come back. To the following people who would also come and sit with our mom so Brittany could get out of the house we truly appreciate your help: Karen McBride, Bianca Castiglione, Katie Czappa, Shanae Crabtree, and Laurie Bracken. We would like to give a special thank you to CNS hospice for the last few years of their excellent care and support (Especially Randi, Shanae, Caitlin, Laura, Caroline, Lon, Lynn and Dr. Frame). They spoiled my mom by bringing her diet cokes and her favorite chocolates every week. A Celebration of Life will be held at Brittany’s home on November 28, 2020 from 2 pm to 6 pm. 530 N 160 West Cir, St George, Utah 84770 “Beautiful music is the art of the prophets that can calm the agitations of the soul’ it is one of the most magnificent and delightful presents god has given us after a mothers love.”
