Kathleen Dakin

Kathleen Dakin, 68, of Olmsted, died at 7:20 a.m. Sunday, June 13, 2021, at her home, with her loving family by her side. 

She was born on Feb. 21, 1953, in Chicago, the daughter of Joseph and Justine Przybysz.

She married David Dakin on Sept. 21, 1991. 

She was very proud of her family, whom she loved very much. Her passions included gardening, fishing, sewing, cooking for her family and rescuing animals. 

She was tiny but feisty and so stubborn. She had been a cook at Hoots Drive Inn, Bears and Dovers Cafe.

She is survived by her husband, David; three daughters, Julie (Doug) Revolinski, Danielle Dakin (Brian Long) and Amanda (Eric) Newkirk; one son, Darrell (Regina) Dakin; five grandchildren, Victoria Revolinski, Ashton Ford, Eric Paul and David Lee Newkirk, Dalton Dakin and many nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her late husband, Virgil Dean; her son, Paul Virgil Dean; her daughter, Roxann Jeannette Dakin; and 10 brothers and sisters. 

Per her wishes, cremation was accorded, with memorial services to be held later in Chicago.

Wilson Funeral Home in Karnak is in charge of arrangements.
