Obituary: Kathleen Eichenblatt

Kathleen “Kathy” Ann Eichenblatt, 61, of Atlanta, passed away March 28, 2021 after a courageous bout with cancer. She was born in St. Petersburg, Fla., to Harold and Joan Lane. From there, she moved to multiple cities before returning and ultimately graduating from St. Pete Catholic High School and matriculating to Florida State University to earn her bachelor of science in marketing.

Kathy accomplished many things in her life, but she was most proud of her family. She was an impressive businesswoman who held executive positions at Phillips-Van Heusen, Mother’s Work, and Ulta Beauty while raising four children. She enjoyed hosting family gatherings, traveling with her husband, gabbing with friends, playing with her Newfoundland dogs, and a good glass of wine. Kathy was a confidant and mentor to many who knew her. She was also an exceptional mother, a loving wife and an amazing friend.

Kathy went home to be with loved ones in the house of God. Kathy is survived by her husband David Eichenblatt; her children Matthew Eichenblatt and his wife Rachel, Alexandra Eichenblatt, Gabrielle Mazer and her husband Arshad, and Jacqueline Eichenblatt; as well as her sisters Linda Gibson, Theresa Prendes and her husband Peter.
