Obituary of Kathryn Kitchens Banks
Please share a memory of Kathryn to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Mrs. Kathryn “Katie” Kitchens Banks, 40, died peacefully at St. Dominic Hospital in Jackson, Mississippi, on November 3, 2024. She was surrounded by her closest friends and family. Visitation will be held at First Ridgeland Baptist Church on November 7, 2024, from 9-11 am, with a memorial service immediately following.
Katie obtained her bachelor’s degree from the University of Mississippi in 2003, where she was a member of the Phi Mu Sorority. She received her master’s degree in accounting from Mississippi College in 2010. Katie worked as an accountant for Grantham Poole, in Ridgeland, Mississippi until February 2024.
Katie was heavily involved in her community, serving as an active member of the Junior League of Jackson, Mississippi and a member of the SAPA board of St. Andrew’s School. Katie played in both day and evening tennis leagues at Reunion Golf and Country Club. While battling Stage-IV metastatic breast cancer, she placed second in her age group in singles during the 2024 spring season.
Katie is survived by her husband, James “Jake;” daughter, Alaina “Lainey;” parents, Jeff and Jeanna Kitchens; sister, Josie Hammons (John); brother, Hunter Kitchens (Nicole) and numerous nieces and nephews.
Katie was an active member at First Ridgeland Baptist Church. Her life reflected her deep dedication to her family and Christian faith. Her loss is deeply felt, but we rejoice that she is with her Savior.
