Kathleen Michelle Mcguire-Waymire

Kathleen "Kat" McGuire-Waymire, 55, of New Madison, passed away on October 20, 2018 at State of the Heart Care Center in Greenville.

Kat was born on March 13, 1963 in Indianapolis, Indiana to Carole Schenck and the late William Patrick McGuire.

In addition to her father, Kat was preceded in death by her brothers, Michael and David McGuire, and her stepfather, Keith Schenck.

Words do not seem adequate enough to describe Kat and what she means to everyone who knew her, but we will try. Kat was a beautiful woman, inside and out; an outstanding cook who made the best Cheesy Potatoes in the world! She was a caring and loving mother, devoted and faithful wife, and her family's guiding light. She was a member of the Harrison Street Baptist Church and loved the church community. Kat had a heart that knew no bounds. She was selfless and loved to help and make people happy. Kat never met a stranger, and anyone who met her liked her immediately. She was energetic with an infectious personality that would light up any room. Kat was very proud and a defender of her family. She would never hesitate to speak her mind. She was one of the hardest workers you would ever know. No matter the circumstances, she provided for her family and insured everyone's needs were met. She was creative and enjoyed making small crafts and signs. Kat was a genuine human being filled with hope and unconditional love. A person like Kat is rare and her vibrant presence will always be with us, and once again, our guiding light.

In addition to her mother, Kat is survived by her husband, Jeff Waymire, whom she married April 13, 2013; her children, Angelica Wilson of Franklin, Ohio, Anthony Wilson, II of Franklin, Ohio, and Dustin (Cora Arnett) Waymire of Greenville, Ohio; her brothers, Steve McGuire and Pat McGuire, both of Nashville, Tennessee; and sister, Kellie (Jeff) Cripe of Zionsville, Indiana; and numerous nieces and nephews.

A Celebration of Kat's life will be held at 3 PM Saturday, October 27, 2018 at the Harrison Street Baptist Church, 140 Harrison Street, New Madison, Ohio, with Pastor Kyle Herrmann officiating.

Family and friends may visit on Saturday from 1:30 PM until the time of the service at 3 PM at the church.
