Cathy Ann Kelchen, 59, passed away with her family by her side on Sunday, July 2, 2023, following a lifelong battle with diabetes, organ transplant and most recent heart surgery.

She was preceded in death by her father, Robert Kelchen of Cedar Rapids.
The family extends special thanks to Dave Carlin for always being there with Cathy and her best friend Krista who has traveled great distances to be with her in time of need.
