Obituary For Janet Kateri Herald
Janet Kateri Herald, 81, of Florence, KY, passed away peacefully on Sunday, September 29, 2024, during her favorite season. Born on June 27, 1943, in Springfield, OH, she was the cherished daughter of the late Benjamin and Garnet Morton.
A devoted member of Latonia Christian Church, Janet found joy in her faith and community. She was an avid crocheter, an exceptional baker, and had a special place in her heart for cats, often welcoming strays into her home. Janet worked for 19 years at Sears, where she made lasting friendships before retiring.
Janet was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 49 years, Wilgus Herald Sr.; her brother, Jimmy Schaefer; her sister, Sharon Schaefer; and her great-grandchild, Malachi Herald.
She is survived by her sons, Wilgus (Mitzi) Herald Jr. and Randy (Amy) Herald; daughters, Malinda Walker and Lisa Hedger; sisters, Carol Herald and Esther Eversole; as well as 10 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren, all of whom she adored.
A visitation will be held on Thursday, October 3, 2024, from 11:30 A.M. until the Funeral Service at 12:30 P.M. at Serenity Funeral Care, located at 40 West 6th Street, Covington, KY 41011. Interment will follow at Floral Hills Memorial Garden.
