Published by Mohave Daily News Online on Feb. 6, 2022 - Bullhead City, Arizona - Kathleen B. Fie-Peterson, age 69, passed away peacefully at her home in Bullhead City, Arizona on Monday, January 24, 2022. Kathy was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on January 15,1953, the only child of Harry and Catherine Cuthbert. Kathy graduated from high school and college in the Philadelphia area with a background in education/admission, and worked in that field at post-secondary educational institutions in the Philadelphia area for nineteen years. Preparing for her permanent move to Bullhead City in November 1999, Kathy obtained her paralegal degree to start a new career in a new city. Working as a paralegal for only four months, Kathy switched direction and became employed by the Laughlin Visitors Bureau/LVCVA, helping to promote tourism to the Laughlin area and other Clark County outlying destinations. She retired in June 2020, after 20 years of happy and fulfilling employment, making many friends along the way. Kathy's additional career in Laughlin, teaching Line Dancing, was a true labor of love. Dancing was her joy, exuberance and passion, and Kathy strived to impart those feelings to everyone she encountered on the dance floor. Kathy's endearing smile and energetic personality was contagious, and she easily made friends and strong bonds with numerous people throughout her lifetime. Kathy was preceded in death by both her parents; and her husband, Melvin LaMar Peterson Jr. She is survived by her daughter, Alyson (Richard) Evanson; grandchildren, Cassidy (Worthy) Lindsey, Collin Evanson, Ricky Evanson; and her two fur-babies, Sugar and Spice.
