Kathy Todd Obituary

Cascade - Kathy Fitzmorris Todd, 77, passed away peacefully on February 22, with her family by her side.

Kathy was born on April 27, 1948, to Hank and Ruth Fitzmorris. She attended Emmett schools and was raised on a dairy ranch in Sweet, where she learned the value of hard work at a young age and carried that strength throughout her life.

Kathy married Bill Perkins of Ola in 1965; together they had two sons, John and Tom Perkins. Though they later divorced, they shared many years raising the boys.

Kathy later married Buz Sisk, they spent many years traveling and embracing new experiences. They welcomed a son, Bobby, in 1975.

In 1984, Kathy met her life partner, Ollie Todd. They made their home in Clear Creek, Idaho, where they spent the remainder of their years together.

Mom, we will be remembered for her strength, resilience, and love for her family. She leaves behind the legacy of hard work, devotion, and lives she touched along the way.

Kathy is survived by her husband, Ollie Todd; her children John (Sherri) Perkins, Tom (Teresa) Perkins, and Bobby (Leah) Sisk; her grandchildren, Audrey Foster, Kasi Deveney, Nichole Cortez, Justin Perkins, Tommy Perkins, Colton, and Caden Sisk. As well as 7 great-grandchildren.

There will be a Celebration of Life on June 13th at 4PM at the Sisk residence, located at 9300 N Highway 52, in Sweet, Idaho.

The family would like to express their deepest gratitude to Jen at Horizon Hospice for providing exceptional care to Mom. Additionally, they would like to extend their heartfelt thanks to Tracey for all the assistance and support.
