Best Answer

Catherine (Kitty) Hershey died on March 25th, 1918 from syphilis which is an STD that slowly weakens your muscles. Syphilis is occasionally referred to as locomotor ataxia. Eventually, people suffering from syphilis often die from complications of pneumonia or organ failure. Kitty Hershey officially died from the pneumonia which as I said above is a common complication of syphilis.
