Kathie Price Helms

Rock Hill – It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Mrs. Kathie Price Helms, 54, into the arms of God on August 20, 2022.

Kathie entered this world on November 6, 1967, in Charlotte, NC.  She was a daughter of the late Jackie Roy Price and Shirley Shurgart Price.  Kathie will be remembered as a lady who loved her two children and all of her family very much.  The hearts of friends and anyone around her were touched so greatly.  Kathie was a graduate of Rock Hill High School.  She also received her Registered Nursing (RN) certificate from York Technical College in Rock Hill.  She loved being an RN and truly loved being able to help others.  Her compassion brought so much comfort to her patients and their families.

Kathie loved beach trips galore and being able to smell the salt water.  No beach trip was complete without visiting Calabash for her seafood.  She also loved listening to Adelle, REO Speedwagon, and other of her favorite CD’s while riding in the car.  Fall and particularly Halloween was a time of the year she truly loved.  She also loved movie nights and drinking hot chocolate.  Family was always welcome.  She loved collecting Jim Shore Angels and Santas.

Kathie was a strong and inspirational woman; her two children were her world and gave her the strength she needed to fight her battles.

If anyone could learn from Kathie, it would be to love deeply, show compassion for others and always put your faith in God.

A quote that relates to Kathie is “The world is full of kind people but if you can’t find one, be one.”  She will be forever missed by those whose lives she touched and those who loved her so much.

Kathie was preceded in death by her parents; Jackie and Shirley Price: her twin sister, Kellie Price; her maternal grandparents, George and Lola Shugart; paternal grandparents, William and Ila Price; and nephew, Brad Fleshman.

Kathie is survived by her two children, Jessica and Justin Garrison of the home; a brother, Michael Price and his wife, Charlotte of Rock Hill, SC; a sister, Lynne Bowling and her husband, Roger of Monroe, NC; her nieces and nephews, Amanda, Kristie, Matthew and Michael; as well as her Aunts, Uncles, cousins and great-nieces and nephews.

A special thank you to the staff at Hospice and Community Care in Rock Hill, SC for their care and kindness.
