Dr. Kinderfather was a dynamic person and teacher. I was a student of hers at Southwest High School and Harris Teacher’s College. There was no slacking in PE class. Oh, how I hated running the 440 yard run especially in Tower Grove Park when the new addition was being built on our athletic field. She lived life to the fullest.

Kathleen was a dear friend to my son and to me. She was vibrant and sharp on a range of topics! She was ready for short and long visits all during the days of Jim’s High school years and beyond. She advocated for so many of her causes and was especially cognizant of the importance of community! She was a model to all of us for physical fitness. She took walks throughout our community and would pick up trash others had left behind! She always had a poignant observation and opinion. High point of the year was always the Fourth of July fireworks and parade! I grieve to think we no longer have her with us in body. She will always be with us in fond memories. -SusanBlain

The world is a better place because Kathleen Kinderfather passed through it. May we who knew her, reflect her light forward.

Dear Kurt, May I extend my sincere condolences to you and your family on your mother’s passing. I had met her on a few occasions with you and she was a lovely lady. I hope this finds you and yours in good health.

Sorry to read that your mother had passed away. I suppose The Monday Club is dark now in more ways than one. Peace, Ken

My condolences to the entire family and sorry for your loss. I had the privilege of having Dr. Kinderfather as my homeroom adviser for three years at Southwest High School. She had profound influence on me and I will always be grateful for her caring and guidance.

My sincere condolences to the Kinderfather family. I always remember Mrs. Kinderfather fondly. She was my PE teacher for my first two years at Southwest High School and I can only picture her with a smile on her face! Last year she honored her former students by attending the 50th reunion of our class of 1969.
Her legacy and influence continue. Peace and blessings to you all !

She was a amazing woman I’m sad I did not get to know her better
