Katherine Breinholt Pulley, our sweet mother, grandmother, and friend, passed away Thursday, July 16, 2015 due to complications of Lewy body dementia.
Kay was born May 9, 1946 in Salt Lake City, Utah to John Philip Sr. and Lois Stanley Breinholt.
She married her sweetheart Daniel Roy Pulley on September 17, 1965 in the Salt Lake Temple.
One of Kay's greatest joys was the family she created with Dan. Her granddaughters were the light of her life. She enjoyed gardening, crafting, sewing, traveling and spending time at the cabin. Kay was an excellent cook and was famous for her apple pies and jam. She was especially accomplished at embroidery and made beautiful quilts for her family.
She served in many church callings, but her favorites were in Primary and Relief Society. Kay worked for many years in the insurance and travel industries, retiring from Continental Airlines. She enjoyed being able to see the world.
Kay is preceded in death by her husband, Daniel Pulley, and her parents and brother John. She is survived by her daughter Tamsin Telford (Robb), sons Shad (Melony), Christopher (Jessica), Kevin, and her seven beautiful granddaughters whom she loved dearly.
