My heart and prayers go out to Katie’s family. I am so sorry for your pain and suffering. She was a beautiful young lady, whom I got to know through her Grandmother Pam, I pray for strength and courage to help you all through life without her. Remember they never really leave us, we keep them alive by our memories and stories of them. I know she was Pam’s Katie Bug, she always shared that with us! God Bless You All!
Thinking of your family during this time of sorrow. May you find strength in all of your sweet memories of such a precious person. I work with Katie’s grandmother Pam and have only met Katie one time, but feel like I have known her through all of Pam’s stories of her. She truly was a blessed young lady to have such a loving Grandmother. I hope all of you can find peace and comfort during this time and lean on one another for support. May God Bless each and everyone of you that loved Katie.

Dear Katie’s Family,
We have never met you – but my children and I had the great honor to get Katie a present for Christmas. My kids, age 6, 10, 12 & 20 picked out the candles, the netted basket & fuzzy socks. Please know that all of us are crying for your loss and praying for you all. Her picture – she is so beautiful! I know she was such a blessing – you can see the sweetness in her face. Thank you for allowing us to be an unknown part of her life. Katie has touched each of our lives and one day we will meet her face to face. God bless you all!
With deepest sympathy to the family of Katie. I hope in the days and months ahead, you will find comfort in the many wonderful memories of her short life. She is in God’s Loving Hands now. God Bless each and every one of you.
