Kathleen's obituary

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Kathleen Allen, who left us on February 10, 2024, and was born on December 29, 1951.  She will be deeply missed by her loving family and friends.

Kathleen is survived by her daughters; Melissa Kapolka (late Brandi Kapolka), Chondra Helson (Eric), Dawn Doherty (Ryan), and Jennifer Ramirez (James). Also grieving her loss are her cherished grandchildren; Keri Brown (Sean), Kaitlyn Stewart (Ben), Eric Kapolka-Helson (Jessica), Keagan Anding (Derek), Hunter Helson, Kyle Snyder, Jamie Ramirez, Jenna Ramirez, James Ramirez , and 11 great grandchildren. Her Aunt Marie Gillispie and several cousins.  She was predeceased by her beloved daughter-in-law, Brandi Kapolka, her parents Gene and Julie Little, and her brother Ronald Little.

Known for her spitfire personality that showed until the end.  Kathleen loved her music and her favorite artists, namely Kenny Rodgers, Dolly Parton, and Elvis. She found joy in watching her favorite TV programs on The Food Network and enjoyed her favorite sports team, the Las Vegas Knights. One of her much-loved pastimes included watching her favorite movie, "Dirty Dancing" and watching Hells Kitchen. She loved her animals and often volunteered at the local Vegas Animal shelter earlier in her life.  

Although Kathleen's absence leaves a void that can never be filled, her life and memories are a treasure to those who knew and loved her. We take comfort in knowing that her loving spirit lives on through her family and the countless lives she touched.
