Oregon Highway 205 Rollover Accident Kills Woman
Date: January 29, 2011
Location: Highway 205 South of Burns
Name: Kathleen Largent

Oregon State Police are investigating a one-car rollover crash that resulted in the death of the driver.

The crash took place on Highway 205 near milepost 25 south of Burns. A passing motorist reported the accident to police at about 7:30am. Police surmise that the driver, Kathleen Largent, age 56 of Diamond, was northbound when she lost control of her GMC Envoy because of icy road conditions. There was also a freezing fog in the area. The car rolled several times off the shoulder of the road and Largent, who was not wearing a seatbelt, was ejected from her vehicle and died at the scene.

Kathy May Young Largent 1954 - 2011
Kathaleen May Young Largent died from injuries sustained in a single car accident on 29 January 2011.

Kathy was born on 19 December 1954, in Council, Idaho the second child of Brig and Barbara Young. She was graduated from Council High School in 1973. On 25 November 1980 she married Mike Largent in Walla Walla, Washington.

Kathy and Mike, worked on ranches throughout their life. She was currently living in Diamond, Oregon where Mike works for Roaring Springs Ranch.

Kathy loved her family a great deal and played the role of peacemaker and uniter throughout her life. She and Mike did most of the work for the last four bi-annual Largent reunions from 2004 - 2010 which were held at Camp Cascade.

In 1998 while working as a manager at Dairy Queen in Mountain Home, ID, Mike and Kathy allowed two teen-aged employees to move in with them Bridget Paglia and Logan Reed. Kathy considered both her children. Kathy and Mike have raised their grandchild, Elizabeth since her birth in 2001.

Kathy loved riding horses, the outdoors, and ranch life. She also enjoyed fishing, and a highlight in her life was a packing trip into the Seven Devils Wilderness area early in her marriage. She grew up camping and fishing and enjoyed it all her life.

Kathy worked as a teacher’s aide at the Diamond Elementary School and served as a primary teacher in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Crane, Oregon. The children loved her, and she enjoyed helping children learn and grow. She had recently begun her own schooling to complete a teaching degree.

Kathy loved dogs and cats as pets, and had several. Like her mother, she would do anything for anyone and gave her time and possessions willingly. She would often work a second job so she had more to give, and was headed to that 2nd job the morning of the wreck.

Kathy is survived by her husband, Mike Largent of Diamond; children; two sisters; a brother; and seven grandchildren

She was preceded in death by her parents, Brig and Barbara Young and brother, Jim Young.

Funeral services were be held on Thursday, 3 Feb at noon in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Crane, OR and burial followed on Friday, 4 Feb 2011 in Council, Idaho.
