Mrs. Kathleen Mary Johnson Attar, 85, of La Porte, Indiana, went to be with our Lord and Savior, gaining her wings peacefully on Saturday, June 7, 2025, surrounded by her loving family.
Kay was born February 4, 1940, in Chicago, IL, the daughter of Frank Johnson and Katherine (Fry) Johnson. She was a 1958 graduate of Elston High School in Michigan City, IN. After graduation, Kay attended Northwestern University and the South Bend Police Academy, FBI.
She worked as the editor of the church column at the Chicago Daily News; she held a position on the, Board of Directors for Parents and Friends of the Handicapped; was a travel agent for Sun Travel Agency, and was extremely proud of her many years working at the La Porte Prosecuting Attorney's office, managing the Victims and Witness program.
On May 14, 1960, Kay married Warren J. Attar in Michigan City, IN. Together, they traveled the world, enjoying all of the fine dining from country to country. They enjoyed many forms of dancing, played golf, and enjoyed their Sun City Center, Florida home for over 20 years, making many loving friends along the way.
Kay loved being a wife, mother, and friend to so many who loved her dearly. She played 40 years of golf, shared many years with her bible study groups, played cards with friends and family, and was an enthusiastic book reader. But most of all, Kay loved spending every minute with her
family, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She will be greatly missed by all whose lives she touched.
