A homemaker and mother, she always had a smile on her face, in good times and in times of trial. 

Mrs. Kauffmann is survived by her daughters, Ginger Head Gearheart and her husband, Joseph, and Janet Hardin and her husband, Ned, all of Fort Worth, Debbie Buster and her husband, Kelly, of Tyler and their father, Adolph Frederick Kauffmann III, M.D.; sisters, Jacquelyn Fisher and Jean Moore, both of Athens; grandchildren, Albon Head, Tyler Head, Robert Head, Trey Hardin and Holland Hardin; great-grandchild, Caitlin Marie Head; and beloved nieces and nephews.
