Kathy Lee Bowers, 56, of North Platte, passed away February 8, 2018 at Bryan LGH East in Lincoln.  She was born July 12, 1961 to Warren and LaDonna (Jones) Bowers at Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Kathy was a joy to everyone she met; she didn’t know a stranger. She enjoyed adventure and lived life to the fullest. She loved being with family and friends whether it was watching the Huskers or sharing in a meal. She worked for many years in the Shelter’s Workshop at North Platte Opportunity Center. Kathy loved listening to music, especially church and country. Most days you could find Kathy watching movies and drinking hot coffee. Kathy will be missed by all who knew and loved her!
