Jack and Family,
I didn't realize that you had suffered such a loss when I saw you at my shop recently. I saw that the life that you always had in your eyes had been dimmed. No one will ever know why we are given a great loss to carry in our lives, we just have to know that someday we will have the answers to our grief. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.

Kathy and Family,
I want you to know that you are on my mind and in my thoughts constantly.
I wish you comfort and peace in the days ahead.
You raised Kaitlyn to be a beautiful, lovely, and kind young woman.
I am sure that those beautiful "blue eyes" are shining down on all of you and watching over you as you try to deal with the sadness of this all.
With Love and Prayers,
Nancy (Gurry) Wilson

In the days following Kaitlyns passing, I witnessed firsthand how much she was loved. As I stood outside the Keaney-Loan household while offering my support, I watched waves of friends, family and neighbors arrive. Some offered kind words, some offered food, some arrived just to give a hug or offer a shoulder to cry on. It was obvious to me that Kaitlyn was someone who was loved very much and will be sorely missed! On behalf of my family, I offer our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Kaitlyn. Lou Rivera & Family (E5).

to the family and friends of kaitlyn,
i had the pleasure of knowing kaitlyn in high-school since mrm was so small when she was a senior and i was a freshman. we were on the soccer team together and she always looked out for all us freshman so when she was on the basketball team with us later that year, we were all psyched. i not only got to know kaitlyn as an amazing athlete that year, but she was also a great role model and i wrote her a long letter expressing this before she graduated. your daughter, sister, friend was truly loved and like many previous people have mentioned, could light up the room with her smile. she truly had a spirit that couldn't be matched and the van rides on the way to and from games were some of the best times.
i hate to make this so long, but kaitlyn glowed when talking about her entire family, especially her dad. you could tell she was definitely a daddy's girl. i truly hope she found the peace she was looking for and i truly believe she is happy and watching over everyone. she loved you all so much and im sure is watching over you all. i'll keep you in my prayers.

With joy, we remember Kaitlyn, as an adorable little girl, with the brightest eyes & shining smile, at the Laboure Day Care Center, many years ago. Ms. Julie (Callahan) recently passed & we believe she, along with another former Laboure Teacher (Ms. Cathy) had to be one of the 1st in line to welcome Kaitlyn into God's home, where there is eternal peace.
May your strong sense of faith, beautiful memories, & the support of family & friends, help you through each moment.
Kaitlyn will be with you always, in spirit, guiding from above.
You remain in our thoughts & prayers... Take Care,
Today & Elaine Adams & Family; along with the old Laboure Staff

I didn't know Kaitie to well, but the time I got to spend with her on Friday nite, I came to feel protective of her. She was alot of fumn to be with and to talk to. As we had drinks, she talked about how much she loved her job and how much she wanted to do. Being allowed into her close group of friends for a nite out, it is very clear how much all those girls loved each other. The loss that her family has to endure is a loss that this wonderful and beautiful girl's friends will also endure. For the time I did spend with her, I shall to feel it. My heart is broken over the future that will not be and the joy of her life we will not see....God has her in His arms now, where there is no pain or troubles, but only peace and love.... Rest in Peace Kate and watch over the ones who love u.

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
