In 1924 she moved with her mother and brother to a farm in Stewart and was graduated from Rome Canaan High School in 1928. After high school, she moved to Athens and attended Ohio University. She worked for Dr. B.M. Covert, optician, in the rear of Cornwell Jewelers, and met her future husband, Walter Cornwell. They were married on Sept. 22, 1938. Kate was the oldest living member of First Presbyterian Church in Athens, joining on April 3, 1939. She was the superintendent of the Sunday School Program for 16 years, which she described as one of her most rewarding experiences. She was a founding member of the Intermediate Child Conservation League (CCL) and a past co-owner of Cornwell Jewelers with her husband, Walter Cornwell. Kate’s greatest passions were her faith, family and friends. One of her great joys was taking her three grandchildren to church and cooking family dinners every Sunday. She kept a diary of each special dinner she cooked. She enjoyed golfing, bridge, nature, antiques, early morning conversations and reading of scripture with her special friends, the color of purple and the companionship of the many dogs she had in her life. She will be remembered for her inspiring example of love, compassion, happiness and celebrations of life’s everyday moments. Besides her parents, Kate was preceded in death by her husband of 52 years, Walter Clinton Cornwell; adored brother, Chester Grant Leslie of Lisbon, Ohio; brother-in-law, Foster Berry Cornwell and wife Helen Cornwell of Athens.
