Katheryn Heisler


Katheryn “Kate” Ann Heisler, an independent woman who enjoyed the outdoors, died on Sunday, September 18, 2022, surrounded by her loving family. Kate 70, of Charlotte was born March 21, 1952, in Charlotte, MI, the daughter of Duane and Mary (Drewyor) Shaver. She loved spending time with her family and friends. Her family will always cherish the Halloween memories when Kate would dress up as a witch each year and pass out her famous popcorn balls. In her younger years she attended clown school with her sisters and together they would do clown shows around the area. Kate loved spending time outdoors and working in her immaculate flower gardens. She worked for 30 plus years for Owens-Illinois in Charlotte. Kate was known for being a collector of antiques and jewelry. Above all her proudest accomplishment in her life was her ability to provide for herself and everything that she had.
Kate is survived by her daughter, Kimberly Heisler-May; grandchildren, Tyler (Kirsten) Butters, Timmothy May, Tabitha May, Jonnie May, Thomas May, and Bridget May; great-grandchildren, Blake and Daniel May; sisters, Jackie (Jerry) Goddard, and Jody (Rich) Little; and nieces, nephews, close cousins and many aunts and uncles.
