Kathleen Ann Stine

Kathleen Ann Stine, 88, of Mechanicsburg, passed away peacefully on April 27, 2026. Born on April 8, 1938, in Constitution, Maryland to the late Thurman and Dorothy (Henry) Earles.

Kathleen lived a life rich with love, laughter, and creativity. She spent many years as an office administrator and payroll clerk for the West Shore School District and CAIU, where her passion for helping others shone brightly.

A true artisan at heart, Kathleen found joy in cross-stitching and crafting, creating beautiful treasures that were cherished by her family and friends. Her love of reading was matched by her culinary talents; she was famous for her Thanksgiving pumpkin rolls, tasty orange cookies, and unforgettable chicken corn soup. Kathleen was a sassy spitfire, with a personality as vibrant as the creations she produced.

She is survived by her loving daughter, Theresa Miller; granddaughter, Alexis (Mitchell) Brown; grandson, Blair Miller; great-granddaughter, Riley Miller; two nephews and one niece, who will carry forward her spirit. In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by her brother, James Earles.

Per her wishes, a private memorial service will be held at the convenience of the family and inurnment will follow in Rolling Green Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, do a random act of kindness to someone in need.
