Kitty (Katherine Luft) Angus, beloved art teacher at Dexter High, to be remembered at 'Bon Voyage' gathering on June 24
Kitty Angus, beloved mother, grandmother, teacher, and advocate of the arts, passed away suddenly on January 4th. She had been diagnosed with cancer. Kitty brought light and creativity into the lives of those around her. Her passion for education and artistic expression touched the lives of many.
Kitty, or "Ms. A", was a favorite teacher at Dexter High School, where she was best known for her classes in art, British literature and mythology. Her eccentric energy and infectious enthusiasm ignited curiosity and confidence in her students, encouraging them to explore their artistic talents. Kitty's summers were filled with travel, leading student groups on explorations across Europe, USSR, and Australia.
Kitty was preceded in death by her father, Carl, mother, Mildred, sister, Jean, and brothers, Ray, Allen, and Glenn. She is survived by her sister, Marianne, her children Amy, Steve, Jon, and Sara, and her grandchildren David, Emma, and Fionn.
Kitty will be remembered for her dedication to education in her community, her infectious love for the arts, endearing curiosity, and her profound impact on those fortunate enough to have crossed paths with her.
