Kathy Lee Tiller's Obituary
Kathy Lee (Whitesell) Tiller passed out of her earthly existence peacefully Saturday, September 23, 2018.
Kathy was born on October 3, 1955 in Indiana, Pennsylvania. She later moved with her parents to Florida in 1956, living mostly in Daytona Beach and Flagler Beach. Upon graduating from Mainland High School in 1973, she attended Daytona Beach Community College and gained employment with The Daytona Beach News-Journal in the advertising department. Her early years with the newspaper were spent selling advertising primarily in Flagler County as a sales associate, where she earned several honors for outstanding service and sales. In 1994, she transferred to the marketing/promotions department where she had the opportunity to unleash her creative talents as a writer and public relations professional. Her job offered the unique opportunity to work with just about every department within the newspaper and resulted in lasting and treasured friendships over the years.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Glen and Chesna Whitesell. She leaves behind her cousins - Randy Whitesell and wife Barbara of south Florida; Elizabeth Hause and her family of South Carolina; Grace Nuss and husband Bob and family of Pennsylvania; Janice Browell and family of Florida; Connie Grace and family of Florida and Edward Browell and wife Judi of Virginia.
Family and friends are invited to join us in a Celebration of Life which will be held at a later date.
