Kathleen Rae Sevley, daughter of Raymond and Mavis Lande (Rasmusson) was born on August 25th, 1941 in Lake Mills. She graduated from Lake Mills High School in 1959.

On June 28th, 1964 Kathy was united in marriage to Earl (Bud) Sevley at Salem Lutheran Church. She lived in Lake Mills until she and Bud moved to a farm outside of Kiester, MN. In October of 2005, after the passing of her husband she moved into Kiester.

Kathy was employed for a short time as Skinner-chamberlain in Albert Lea prior to getting married. Once she got married, she became a homemaker and helped around the farm. She would often tell stories about the early days on the farm. She would talk about preparing coffee and food for the late nights of working on the farm. Kathy’s greatest joy was getting to raise her three children and watching her grandchildren grow. In her early years Kathy enjoyed hosting family and friends and attending social gatherings. Kathy was blessed with many lifelong friendships and you could often find her talking on the phone for hours. If she was not talking on the phone with friends or family you could find her watching her Soap operas, pretty much anything on Hallmark or telling the Vikings to play better if there was a game on.

Kathy is survived by her three children: Kim Stollard of Blooming Prairie, Scott Sevley of Thompson and Jermey Sevley of Kiester. Her sister: Julie Posthumus and her Husband James of Burnsville.  She had three grandchildren: Brittany Frerichs (Chris) of Forest City, Samantha Sevley (Logan McCormick) of Lake Mills and Trevin Stollard of Blooming Prairie. Her two great-grandchildren Jaxon and Brayden. Her Nieces and Nephews: Jennifer Reiland and her husband Leonard Reiland, Justin Posthumus and Jason Posthumus and many other friends and family.
