Kathleen (Kathy) A. Herr, age 76, passed away on October 1, 2024. Born in West Reading, she was the daughter of the late Merlin Miller and Arlene (Tobias) Miller Moore, and Francis E. Moore. She was the devoted high school sweetheart and wife of Richard (Dick) L. Herr whom she married on June 6, 1970.
Kathy graduated from Lampeter-Strasburg High School, class of 1965 and immediately started her career as a legal secretary working for Rengier, Musser and Stengel. She then moved on to work at the firm of Kegel, Kelin, Almy and Grimm and then eventually retiring from Blakinger, Byler and Thomas as a paralegal. She was dedicated and excelled at her career as a paralegal and belonged to The Paralegal Association.
When not working, Kathy enjoyed spending time in her flower garden and was an avid reader. Most of all, she reserved her most precious time for her sons and grandchildren making cherished memories.
In addition to her husband of 54 years, Dick, Kathy is survived by her three sons: Michael L. Herr (husband of Kimberly), Benjamin R. Herr (husband of Christine) and Daniel J. Herr (husband of Vanessa); her grandchildren: Tom, Nick, BaiLee, Josh, Sami, Anaiah, and Emma; and her siblings: Theresa Miller, Brian Moore (husband of Ann) and Allison Rios.

Condolences to the Family
October 05, 2024
My sincere condolences to Kathy’s family. I met Kathy during her treatments at the cancer center where I volunteer. She was always cheerful and we would often discuss her garden and her family. She was concerned that she couldn’t get to the weeding that needed to be done. She said how much she appreciated the help and support she received from her family and friends.
