Mary Kathleen Correll (nee Ditch), of Saint Peters, MO, passed away on Thursday, February 20, 2025, at the age of 46. She was a loving and devoted mother to her children, Ryan Kranawetter and Isabella Rullo, and a cherished daughter of Joseph and Kathleen Ditch. Mary Kathleen was a beloved niece to her namesake, Kathleen (Lee) Richardson, and a loving little sister to Val (Shirley) Ditch, Vincent Ditch, Shirley (Kevin) Derby, John Ditch, and Matthew (Amanda) Ditch.
Mary Kathleen also had a close bond with her lifelong friends Toni Dillon (nee Redman), Dia Day, and Terra Treece, who were an integral part of her life. She was known for her vibrant personality, her ability to make people feel welcome, and her deep love for her family and friends.
In her career as an insurance agent, Mary Kathleen dedicated herself to helping others secure the best health and financial benefits to ensure a stable future for them and their families. She took great pride in her work, offering exceptional service and care to all she worked with, and was an outstanding saleswoman who touched many lives.
Mary Kate, as she was affectionately known, was the youngest in her family, but she possessed the greatest sense of style, beauty, and grace. Her fashion sense was unmatched, and her spirit, kindness, and strength will live on in the hearts of all who knew her. She will forever be remembered for the light she brought into this world, her loving nature, and her indomitable spirit.
May you be at peace, Mary Kate. We know that mom will take care of you now.
A memorial service will be planned for a later date.
