Beloved Mother, Grandmother, Daughter, and Friend

Kathy Gutierrez, 68, a long-time resident of Colorado Springs passed away unexpectedly on November 24, 2022, in Pueblo, CO. Kathy had lived in Colorado Springs since 1972, before moving to Pueblo, CO to be closer to her daughters and grandchildren in 2021.

Kathy enjoyed crocheting, putting puzzles together, painting, coloring and her bingo game was fierce! She loved to watch her Seattle Seahawks and comedy and action /adventure movies.

Gutierrez (Stacy Noyd) of Pueblo, Stephanie L.(Gutierrez) Tuomey- Johnson (Adam Johnson) of Pueblo West and six grandchildren; Maykala Noyd, Michael Tuomey (Daniela Garcia), Maija Noyd, Kaiden Noyd and Gabriel Johnson. 

Kathy was preceded in death by her father; Derald, her mother and stepfather; Karmen and Hank, and her brothers; Michael and Gary.

Kathy was a cherished, sassy friend with unconditional love and wisdom for her children and grandchildren. Seeing her family happy and healthy was her proudest accomplishment.

At Kathy’s request, she will be cremated with no memorial service. Her family is planning a celebration of life to honor her memory at a later date.
