Katharine Lattimore Young McCaw walked into her Savior's arms May 29, 2024. She was born in New York City, New York, on March 18, 1930, to Alleyne and George Young. In 1946 she graduated from Northampton School for Girls in Northampton, Massachusetts, and enrolled in Westhampton College for Women, a part of the University of Richmond. Two years later, she transferred to Baylor University in Waco, and earned a BS in Education. While a student she was a member of the university's water ballet team. Katharine met Mack McCaw on a blind date to a NOZE Brotherhood event at the Raleigh Hotel. It was a match! Following their graduations, they married Dec. 27, 1950. She is one of sixty-four Baylor alumni in her family, with her grandmother being the first woman elected to the Board of Trustees. After working twenty years in Dallas, Mack bought an insurance agency in Greenville, so the family moved. Katharine then returned to college, and in twelve months she earned her Masters in Education with an emphasis in special education from East Texas State University. She taught at Greenville High School, as well as Paris Junior College when it was located in the Henson building on Lee Street. Leaving the classroom, she worked for MHMR, placing and supervising clients in their jobs. Then she managed a showroom at the World Trade Center in Dallas for several years. When she finally retired, she turned her attention to the community; she was an organizing member of the local American Association of University Women, always chairing the scholarship committee; the Audie Murphy/Cotton Museum; the Edward Buckley Chapter, DAR; and the Cotton Patch Quilt Guild, Cotton Strippers, and Sunbonnet Sues quilt circles. She was also an active member of the Garden Study Club, Rejebian Book Review Club, and Kavanaugh United Methodist Church. Her husband, Mack, preceded her in death in 1985. Katharine is survived by her sister, Jean Harrison of Pennsylvania, as well as four children and their spouses: Bill and LaVonne McCaw, Alleyne and Bill Coleman, Kelly and Ron Greiner, and Mary McCaw; plus ten grandchildren and seventeen great-grandchildren. The Lord calls us to serve Him, and she certainly did. Not only did she have the spirit of hospitality, but she also quietly and unpretentiously helped those in need. She has set an example of servanthood worthy to follow: 1 Peter 4: 8-9: "Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling." A Memorial Service will be held Saturday, June 8, 2024 at 11:30am in the Lynch Funeral Service Chapel in Greenville, Texas.
