Katharine (Kathleen) Taylor Berryhill a lifelong resident of Liberty County was born in Daisetta to Gilbert G. Taylor and Emma (Young) Taylor on October, 21 1920.

She enjoyed cooking, quilting and crafts. Her greatest love was her family, a family she cared for selflessly. You never went hungry when you dropped by for a visit. She would always say “there’s food in the ice box”. Katharine loved to laugh and to dance. She would dance at every opportunity and a smile and laughter were her signature.
