Phillips, Kathryn, N. (nee Korth) was promoted to Glory and into the arms of her Savior on Tuesday, September 29, 2026, in the presence of her family.
Kathryn was married to the late Thomas Phillips. She was the daughter of Robert and Carolyn Korth as well as the adopted daughter of Rev. Allie and Donna Rains, all who proceeded her in death. She is the loving sister of Robert (Bobby) Korth of St. Louis County, MO, Tom Rains of Quincy, IL, Pattie Hanna, of Bardolph, Il, Darla Shular of St. Clair, MO and Jasper Rains of Ballwin, MO. She was our dear sister-in-law aunt, cousin, and friend.
Kathryn was a lover of animals, particularly tigers. She was the mom to many dogs through the years, including three that survived her. She loved her family and friends. She loved Jesus and His strength sustained her in many difficult times throughout her life. She was strong, kind, loving and beautiful.
Service: The family will receive visitors at Kutis Affton Chapel on Saturday, October 3, beginning at 11:00 AM. A celebration of life will begin at 12:00 PM. Interment at a later date at Valhalla Cemetery. Memorials to Stray Rescue St. Louis will be appreciated.
Our prayers are for your family’s comfort as you adjust to this loss.
She will be missed by those who knew her and Tom. It was a joy to have known her and able to visit from time to time
Kathy loved Tommy so much. Now they are together. Hugs to all the families.

I really going to miss and loved my big sister and she was like a little mother to me when our mother passed away when we were children and I`m about 6 and a half years younger than her and tragedy we got separated right our father died about a year and a half later after our mother died by our aunts but she lived so far from me but she`s up there Rev Allie and Donna Rains her adopted parents and her real parents
I remember when we used to go work out at the salon in Saint Ann. That place closed up so many years ago. Glad you do not have to suffer any more and can be reunited with your late husband. God bless you.
Kat, I’m still in a state of shock. I love you and I miss you, so badly, so does Keith. We were excited to have you move in with us, but God had different plans and God’s ways are better than our ways. You are in perfect peace now and no more pain. I will see you up in Heaven on that GLORIOUS day. Gosh, it hurts and I still text you from time to time. I’m missing our talks and plans. God’s blessings surrounding all her loved ones.
We love and miss you Kat! We will see you up in Heaven, on that Glorious Day!!
