Kathleen B. Wiste, 93
Kathleen B. Wiste, 93, of Adams, Minnesota, was called home to the Lord on Wednesday, November 26, 2014, at St. Marks Living in Austin, Minnesota.
Kathleen Belle Blaser Wiste was born on March 15, 1921, in Meyer, Iowa, the sixth of ten children born to John and Anna (Blake) Blaser. She attended Sacred Heart School in Meyer. In her early 20’s, she moved to Austin, sharing an apartment with her older sister, and working in a variety of jobs including housekeeper, nanny, clerk in a dry cleaners, and on the processing line at Hormel. She met her future husband at a dance in Austin, and she and Orrin Wiste were married at Sacred Heart Church, Meyer, Iowa, on Oct. 25, 1945. Together, they raised their family of five children on the Wiste family farm in rural Adams.
After taking 25 years out of the workforce to raise their children, Kathleen returned to work at age 52, working at LPC, the Adams Café, and the Adams Health Care Center over a period of ten years until her retirement.
Kathleen was a member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church, the Sacred Heart Council of Catholic Women, and the neighborhood rosary prayer group. She was a substitute cook at Southland High School, volunteered in the Sacred Heart School library, and handmade hundreds of rosaries which were sent to Catholic missions overseas. She took such pride in her rosary work, perfectly crafting each rosary into a work of art.
Kathleen enjoyed spending time with her family, getting special joy from her many grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
