    • Obituary Baltimore Sun December 27,1998:

      Kathleen Freeney Herget, 91, homemaker

      Kathleen Freeney Herget, who loved to play bridge and wrote thank-you notes to her last day, died Friday at her Baltimore residence at the age of 91.

      Born in Delmar, she attended Goucher College for a year before graduating from Penn State College of Optometry and joining her father, Thomas Barton Freeney, in his optometry practice in the Eastern Shore town for five years.

      She became a homemaker after her marriage to Charles Edward Herget. They had been married for 40 years when he died in 1977. A Methodist most of her life, Mrs. Herget converted to Catholicism when she was 82.

      In addition to playing bridge, Mrs. Herget's greatest pastime was spending time with her three granddaughters, Melissa Ruth Niquette, Stacey Elizabeth Taylor and Kelly Herget Spilman. In addition, she had two great-granddaughters and two great-grandsons.

      Her son and only other immediate survivor, Charles E. "Ted" Herget Jr. of Baltimore, remembered his mother as an old-fashioned lady who tried to follow prim social rules. She taught him to always write thank-you notes. On Christmas Day, before she passed away with her son at her side, Mrs. Herget was writing thank-you notes for gifts she had received.

      A Mass of Christian burial will be offered at 10 a.m. tomorrow at the Cathedral of Mary Our Queen, 5300 N. Charles St.
