Kate Farrar was the middle child of Debora Green and Michael Farrar, born in 1980s. Farrar had two siblings, one brother Timothy, who was around two years older than her, and a sister nammed Kelly, who was born on December 13, 1988. According to Farrar's, the five of them were a family in every way until her parents decided to separate. In 1995, when all this happened, Kate said she loved and admired her mother but was angry at her father for leaving and unknowingly pushing Green to drink “large quantities of alcohol”.
On October 24, 1955, when the Farrar family home caught fire, Kate woke up to the smoke coming into her bedroom. When she realized what was going on, she faced the flames and tried to alert her 13-year-old brother as well. Then, walking back into her room, Kate placed a hang-up 911 call to inform the police and crawled out of her window. The 10-year-old then made her way to the roof, from where she saw her mother.
Green, Farrar said, was “terribly upset” and asked her to jump to safety. Green then promised her that she’d catch her, but she missed, and Kate fell to the ground. Being a trained ballerina dancer, Kate maintained her balance and wasn't injured. When firefighters arrived, Farrar begged them to save her little sister and brother, Green, who stood quietly next to her daughter, was reported to look “very calm, very cool.” But alas, nothing and no one else could be saved – the blaze had engulfed the whole house.
In 1995, when Green got convicted and sentenced for arson and murder, was protesting her conviction, said that she wanted to spend some time with her surviving daughter. Now an adult, Farrar prefers to live her life away from the limelight. According to a news story by Cinamaholic, Farrah's paternal grandparents took care of her after the whole incident took place. Farrah is now married and resides in Kansas City, Missouri.
