Mrs. Steele was born
January 14, 1944 in Chicago, Illinois, the daughter of the late John Kenneth and Antoinette Diemer. Kathy was a lifelong lover of people, pets, and a good laugh. She was a loving daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, friend, and teacher. After graduating from college in 1964 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, she began her teaching career in elementary education, and at her wedding in 1965, her first-grade class was in attendance. When Kathy’s first son was born
in 1968, she set her teaching calling aside for her life’s most important work. She gave birth to three more children and settled in Syracuse, New York, which would be her family’s home for 25 years. In 1980 Kathy returned to teaching at Holy Cross School, her children’s school, where she taught for the next 17 years and in 1989 was awarded the St. John the Baptist De La Salle Award by the Diocese of Syracuse Catholic Schools, for outstanding teaching and “Extraordinary Commitment to the Ideals of Catholic Christian Education.” While at Holy Cross, Kathy and Scott welcomed Hoa Nguyen into the Steele family. In 1997, with her children through college, Kathy moved with her husband to Oak Island, North Carolina to begin the next chapter in her life. Over the next two decades, Kathy shared her love for life and gift of gab with her beloved island community of Caswell Dunes. It is said that Kathy has never met a stranger. She played bridge weekly, enjoyed entertaining her friends, volunteered at Southport/Oak Island Animal Rescue, substitute taught, published a children’s book titled The Legend of the Angel Wing Shell, and made a vacation paradise for her children and grandchildren.
Surviving is her husband of 49 years, K. Scott Steele; two sons John Scott Steele of Penn Yan, NY and William Kirk Steele and wife Carrie of San Antonio, TX; three daughters, Susan Elaine Leight and husband Andrew of Easton, MD, Kathleen Ann Kreutner and husband Erik of Charleston, SC, and Hoa Nguyen of Syracuse, NY; three brothers Jack Diemer and wife Shirley, Michael Diemer and wife Sharon, and Robbie Diemer; a sister Barbara Baldizar and husband Robert; and eleven grandchildren, William, Kaden, Chloe, Ansley, Tommy, Sophie, Anna Kate, Mary Clare, Owen, Adam, and Kayleigh.
