Ms. Kathleen Mary Stone-Kojis

Stone-Kojis, Kathy of Waterford was born into eternal life on January 14, 2018, at the age of 62. Kathy was born April 16, 1955 in Milwaukee, WI to Russell and Colette (nee. Witt) Stone. She spent her early life in Brookfield, WI and was a graduate of Gaenslen High School. Kathy was a free-spirited woman who followed her faith, love, and journey with deep passion.
In her younger years Kathy enjoyed camping, swimming, traveling and spending time with her family and friends. Later, she met Tom Kojis of Waterford and the couple found they shared a bond like no other, living together independently in their Waterford home. They enjoyed working together for common goals and keeping the faith of our Lord in their presence always. In Kathy’s spare time, she would paint on oil canvas, wheel chair dance, and go bowling. In 1995, after many years of work, Kathy published “The Unsinkable Stone”, a collection of her stories and lifetime treasures. Kathy said, “I didn’t just survive, I lived life to the fullest!”
She will be greatly missed by her husband Tom Kojis, Father Russell Stone, Sister Cindy (Don) Kempka, Niece Jessica (Mark) Birkholz, Nephew Daniel (Katy) Kempka, Father-in-law Joe Kojis, Brothers-in-law Richard and John (Barb) Kojis, Aunts, Uncles, other relatives, and friends.
She was preceded in death by her Mother, Colette Stone and her Mother-in-Law, Ione Kojis.
