Kathy Lynn Drabek-Farrow, 65, of Eufaula, Oklahoma passed away peacefully on Thursday, October 5, 2023 at the St. Francis Hospital in Tulsa. Kathy was born on November 20, 1957 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma to Elmer John “E.J.” and Elizabeth June Drabek. Raised in Oklahoma City, Kathy was a proud 1976 graduate of Heritage Hall School, where she formed many lifelong friendships. Furthering her love of nature, Kathy graduated from Oklahoma State University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Horticulture Science and Landscape Design. On December 21, 1995, Kathy married Dr. Robert Edgar “Ed” Farrow. After spending many happy years at their country home in Checotah, Kathy and Ed retired to their dream home overlooking beautiful Lake Eufaula. Kathy successfully pursued a variety of professional endeavors including working as a recreational director at Arrowhead Resort and as an independent land woman. She enjoyed searching and collecting arrowheads (which were generously shared with family and friends), walking around Belle Starr Campground, and long, scenic car drives. But most of all, she cherished the blessings of being a loving wife, mother and grandmother.
