Kathleen T. (Hughes) Sears

Kathleen T. (Hughes) Sears, 86, of Fall River, widow of Clifford T. Sears, passed away on Wednesday, October 2, 2019. She was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Married in 1951 in St. Patrick Church, Fall River, and she was sealed for time and all eternity in the Washington, DC Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in 1972.

She had many passions in life.  One was researching genealogy, specializing in French Canadian lineage, and the other was caring for others.  From fostering children while raising her own and traveling the country as a Pentecostal Minister to her 40 years of service with the members of her Latter Day Saint Fellowship.  One of her great joys was helping raise her three grandchildren, Jennefer, Peter and Mary.
