of Greenbrier, AR
September 30, 1981 - November 1, 2024
Kathryn JoAnna Steele Billings, passed from this world on November 1, 2024 in Idaho Falls, Idaho. She was born on September 30, 1981 in Conway, Arkansas. She is survived by her loving parents, Gary and Cheri Steele of Greenbrier, Arkansas; her precious children, Connor and Kayla Billings of Bentonville, Arkansas; siblings, Greg Smith (Jacqui), Chad Smith, Dana Cervantes (Tripp) and Matt Steele (Jenni.) She also leaves behind many caring aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, co-workers and her loving friend, Lee Johnson.
Katie was a gifted trombone player. She was a proud member of the Greenbrier High School Band and the University of Arkansas Razorback Marching Band.
She graduated from Greenbrier High School in 1999 and went on to the University of Arkansas, where she earned a bachelor's degree in journalism.
Katie was a certified SCUBA Master Diver and was always up for a challenge. She grew up in Arkansas, lived in Florida for many years and spent her final months enjoying the natural beauty of Idaho. Katie adored her family and cherished spending time with them more than anything. She would tell anyone that her proudest achievement in life was her two children.
Katie loved to cook and was an excellent baker. She loved sitting around the table after a good meal with her family, playing games and laughing. Katie had a wonderful sense of humor and brought joy to all who knew and loved her. She was a huge movie buff and if movie quote contests were a thing, she would surely be the champion.
Katie and her sweet smile will be deeply missed by many. Her family takes comfort in knowing that Katie is at eternal peace with the Lord in heaven.
