Shortly after graduating from St. Vincent's Academy in 1928, Katherine moved to San Francisco and took a job with the newly formed FBI. She returned to Kansas City when the war started to be with family. She earned her bachelor's degree from The College of St. Teresa (now Avila University) in 1956. She relocated to Albuquerque, New Mexico, where she earned a master's degree in elementary education from the University of New Mexico in 1961. She was a long-time member of the American Association of University Women. Her love of teaching and working with young people inspired her to pursue a teaching career which began on Indian reservations in New Mexico and with the Albuquerque Public Schools.

Katherine was preceded in death by her parents and brothers Thomas and wife Vivian, John (Jack) and wife Rosemary, Eugene and Richard McNerney and her sister Anne McNerney Jordan.
