Gavey, Kathleen L. (Lois Kathleen Lobaugh)-January 30, 1933-November 15, 2019 Kathleen's intense curiosity led her to a variety of interests in the course of her life. In her younger years she sang in school choirs, assisted in operettas, and learned to play the piano and cello. Her interest in music continued at Muskingum College, New Concord, OH, where she participated in orchestra and choir. Later in Albuquerque, NM she played in a volunteer orchestra, the Albuquerque Philharmonic, and sang in her Church choir. Medical Science was another key element in her life.
