Katie Estes passed away at her home June 18, 2009. Katie retired from Channel Two after 40 years in advertising sales. According to the Houston Chronicle Obituary, her favorite ‘duty’ at KPRC-TV “had to be her role as the ‘friendly bookie’ running the football pot (never on credit!) for many years”.

Katie was an animal lover,including her rescue Scottish Terrier. Because of this, memorials, if desired, be directed to The Texas Scottie Rescue Fund 501©3, 5810 Windvale Drive, San Antonio, TX 78239, a favorite pet related charity, or to your charity
