Leidholt of Miles City passed away on Tuesday, August 25, 2015 at the Holy Rosary Hospital in Miles City in the company of her beloved family at the age of 88. Kathryn was born in Belfield, ND on March 27, 1927, the daughter of the John and Mary Miller Herauf. Her parents died in an automobile accident when she was 15. After this tragic accident, she finished high school in Dickinson, ND while living with her grandparents, Jacob and Theresia Herauf. Upon graduation, she attended the Dakota Business College in Fargo, ND for one year majoring in Accounting. Kathryn came to Miles City in 1945 to live with her Aunt Monie Selbman, who with her husband Ed, owned the Crème Barber and Beauty shop. The shop was then located in the same location as the current Cellar Casino on Main Street. In August 1945, Kathryn was introduced to Robert Leidholt by her Aunt Pauline who was married to Robert's older brother, Leonard. Robert had just returned from three years Army service in Africa, Italy, France and Germany during WWII. Their meeting was "magic" and they were married by Monsignor Thomas Hennessy at Sacred Heart Church on May 10, 1946, a union to last more than 67 years until Robert's passing in 2013. After her marriage, she took in and raised her two younger brothers, Norbert and Henry, who both then graduated from Sacred Heart High School. Kathryn was a "Renaissance Woman" displaying her multiple talents in many different roles. She was a loving and wonderful mother, raising eight sons into responsible, productive men, no small task! She also acted as the home work tutor for her boys emphasizing the importance of a high level of education. Kathryn was an accomplished cook whose tasty recipes continue in use today by her extended family. There was never much money in the house, but always lots of great food. She was a remarkable baker whose cakes, pies, cinnamon rolls, twists and donuts were always in high demand. She was well known to bake goodies and take them to many different destinations including Holy Rosary Extended Care. She expanded her baking capabilities to include many beautiful wedding cakes. She also enjoyed sewing, crocheting and crafts. Kathryn worked outside the home as a telephone operator for Mountain Bell for 29 years. Kathryn in her later years became the Leidholt and Herauf families' genealogical expert publishing a large volume for each family. Her research work documents the immigration of Russian and German immigrants to North Dakota & Montana in the early 1900s. Most of all, Kathryn was a woman of strong faith and a highly valued member of the Sacred Heart Catholic Church and School. She actively supported both in whatever way she was able to contribute for over 70 Years!!! Surviving are her seven sons and their families: Deane of Aiea, Hawaii and his children Joel and Jason; Dione (Jeannette) of Great Falls and his children: Lurene, Lauren and Brandi; Denis (Rhonda) of Miles City and their children: Kylee, Koby and Kyrtlie; Darvin of Miles City; Daniel of Miles City and his son Shawn; Douglas (Wendy) of Miles City; Daren (Dawn) of Miles City and their children: Logan, Garrett, Charli and Chappy; Duane's children: Dan, Natasha, Dustin, Derek and Savanah; her sister Sarah (Herb) Emmil; her brother Norbert (Joyce) Herauf and ten great grandchildren.
