Katherine Leihgeber, age 82, of New Galilee, Pennsylvania, passed away peacefully on Sunday, August 3, 2025, at her lifelong home.

Born on May 12th, 1943, in Big Beaver, PA, Katherine was known for her faith and dedicated work at Providence Health Care. She spent her life as a loyal lamb to her Lord, a devotee of the Christian House Baptist Church, and was very close with her dog Scotty. She loved crocheting in the sunshine on her porch.

She is survived by her nephews, Carl Allen Leihgeber (Marlana) of New Galilee, Bill Phillips (Jody) of New Galilee, and George Sepsie of New Castle; Nieces, Michele Sheridan (Bob) of Pittsburgh, Cindy Musquire, Kim Webb (Bruce) of New Galilee, and Marie Sepsie of Kansas; and many great nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Clara and Carl Leihgeber; siblings, Carl Edward Leihgeber (Veda), Thelma Phillips (Bill),  Emma Sepsie, Lawrence Leihgeber; and great-niece, Ashlee Leihgeber.

Katherine will be remembered for her fierce personality, her quiet strength through hard times and the love she shared with those around her. Her recent fight with dementia and other health conditions is now finally at an end, with Marlana holding her hand, in restful peace.

Family and friends will be received Friday August 8 ^th at 10 AM until 12 PM in the GABAUER-LUTTON FUNERAL HOME & CREMATION SERVICES, Inc., 117 Blackhawk Road Beaver Falls, PA 15010.

Internment will take place at Grandview Cemetery, Beaver Falls.

A memorial service will be announced at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to Beaver County Humane Society, 3394 Brodhead Rd, Aliquippa, PA 15001 or simply asks that you hold her in your thoughts.
