Kathleen A. Pascarella

We are saddened to announce that Kathleen Anne Pascarella, age 85, of Brownsburg, IN passed away peacefully on August 27, 2025.
Born on May 2, 1940, in Mishawaka, Indiana, Kathy was the middle daughter of George and Bertha Zimmerman.  On June 13, 1964, she married Frank Pascarella and spent most of her life in the Michigan/Indiana area.
Kathy spent many years in Human Resources at PricewaterhouseCoopers in Ft. Wayne, where her empathy, professionalism, and intellect made her a trusted colleague and friend. Beyond her career, she was a woman of many interests and dearly loved her family.
She had a lifelong love of art and beauty and found joy in expressing herself creatively through painting, drawing, and writing. A spirited sports fan, Kathy cheered passionately for Notre Dame football, the Indianapolis Colts, and the Indiana Pacers.
She was known for her sharp wit and dry sense of humor, which brought laughter and lightness to those around her.  Beyond her humor, she possessed a deep wisdom that could never be taught, only earned, and it became a steady compass for our family throughout our lives.
Kathy was a loving mother and grandmother and is survived by her 4 children: Tracy Cox of Salt Lake City, UT; Randy Pascarella and his wife Kim of Round Rock, TX; Mark Pascarella and his wife Jennifer of Matthews, NC; and Monica McKinney and her husband Jeff of Brownsburg, IN. She also leaves behind her cherished sister, Margaret Underdown, and seven adored grandchildren who brought her endless joy: Christopher, Kaylee, Ryan, Ethan, Alexandra, Samantha, and Kaitlyn.
Kathy will be remembered for the grace with which she lived, the laughter she shared, and the love she gave so freely.
