Katherine or “Katie” as she was known by her close friends and neighbors in Florida, and “Pooch” as she was known by her family, was born on July 14^th, 1957, in Waynesburg, Pennsylvania, to the late John and Helen Severini, where she attended Jefferson-Morgan Jr-Sr High School.

She is survived by her loving husband of 18 yrs. James Bresson, her two sons David Vuknic of Kingston, Ok and John Vuknic of Ft. Myers, Fl and three grandsons, London, Bishop, and Bryce Vuknic. Two brothers, Mike Bobella and wife Zaidee of Pittsburgh, PA, and David Severini and wife George Ann of Carmichaels, PA.

Stepson Edward Vuknic II and wife Sharon of Anderson, S.C. as well as several nieces and nephews.  In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her stepdaughter Heather Vuknic of Washington, PA.

Katie was a loving mother, wife and friend who would give you the shirt off her back and at the same time she also had no problem letting you and anyone else what she thought. She ultimately led a life of giving and caring for others while putting herself last. She will be sorely missed by many.
