(KAIR)--A longtime teacher is being remembered in the Atchison community, following her death last weekend. 

Kathy Munson was 71-years-old when she died Sunday at her Atchison home. 

Munson was a teacher of many years for the Atchison Catholic Schools, teaching elementary students for 33-years. 

According to her obituary from Atchison's Arensberg-Pruett Funeral Home, Munson began her teaching career at the Atchison Junior-Senior High School, and then taught at Potter and the Atchison County Community High School before settling into her role at the Catholic Schools, known at that time as ACES and now known as the Saint Benedict Catholic School. 

Munson leaves behind her husband of 48-years, Stan, as well as three sons, a daughter, and others. 

She will be remembered Friday morning during a Mass of Christian Burial at 10:00 at Saint Benedict's Catholic Church in Atchison.
