Katherine Teasley, 78, of Niagara Falls, NY, passed away peacefully on June 2, 2026, at Millard Fillmore Suburban Hospital. Born in Syracuse, NY, she was the daughter of the late Kenneth Sr. and Margaret (Catalado) Barnes.

Raised in Syracuse, Katherine spent many years working as a dedicated home health care aide, offering compassion and support to those in need. She also embraced the lively spirit of the annual New York State Fair, where she worked as a carney.

Katherine had a joyful, spirited personality. She loved visiting the casino, playing bingo, and listening to her favorite country music. Above all, she treasured time spent with her family.

Katherine is survived by her siblings Jean Barnes, Beverly Young, and Shirley O’Brien, as well as many beloved nieces, nephews, and cousins.

In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by her two sons, Johnny Graham and Paul Graham; her twin sister, Patricia Barnes Bartlett; and five other siblings: Billy Barnes, Kenneth Barnes, Jr., Rosie Barnes, Barbara Barnes, and Johnny Barnes.
