Bud & I, really didn’t know Katrina very well, but the family connection that we have followed for the last 6 months, is an example Every family should and would want to follow!!
The love, closeness, patience, laughter and dedication, this family has shown, is the most amazing bond we have ever witnessed ❤️🙏
This family has become a blessing & a role model on how to handle tragedy ❤️
My heart breaks for the loss of this amazing niece. She has taught me more in the last 8 months than I can count. Her sense of humor, her sassy personality, and her compassion for special needs children will be greatly missed by many.
I only hope to measure up to a fraction of what she was.
Love you girl!
The grace and strength shown during the most difficult time anyone can imagine is so inspiring. Katrina will forever be remembered as a strong woman with a beautiful heart.
I remember Katrina from some of my earliest childhood days. She was hilarious and made me laugh so much back then.. although we lost touch over the last decade, reading about her life since graduation makes me so proud of who she had become and so incredibly saddened by the loss of a great woman in this world. My heart goes out to her family… she was a beautiful soul.
So sorry for the loss of such a beautiful life! So very sorry for the loss of Katrina, God Bless you all, praying for comfort in this time of grief!
My condolences to the family for the loss of your loved one, and may you find comfort in the future promises of Almighty God to mankind to rid the earth of everything that causes us pain, suffering and sorrow, please read in your copy of the Bible about those future promises at Revelation 21:3,4,5.
