Kathleen Joy Levine

KATHLEEN "KATHY" J. LEVINE (nee Kelemen) age 80, beloved wife for 45 years of Douglas; loving mother of Vivien and Bradley (wife Van Tran); grandmother of soon to be born Olive; cherished daughter of the late William and Helen (nee Hunyak) Kelemen; dearest sister of the late William "Billy" Kelemen; and dear friend of many. Survived by her feline companion Daisy.

Kathy was born on March 15, 1946, in Cleveland, Ohio. She attended Orange High School and went on to pursue a career as a belly dancer. When Kathy was not dancing, she enjoyed antiquing, watching Jeopardy and western TV shows, and listening to John Denver and Bob Dylan. She traveled all over and loved shopping, the arts, and theater. Kathy was a friendly face and a social butterfly with a sense of humor and confidence that would light up every room. Her empathic and joyful spirit will be missed by many.
