I never knew Katy. I have only met a few of the people who were close to her. I am awestruck. I wish we could have been friends. I have grown to love a person I have never met,simply because of the immense imprint she has left on those around me.

Dotti, I saw you running on Dover Road in Wellesley a few weeks back and hadn't learned of your loss until I received your Christmas card today. I met Katy briefly when she was a spunky student at St. John's...I sure wish I had known her as the amazing woman she became at age 22. In this crazy financial world that we Americans are facing, Kevin's words are even more poignent.....count your blessings.....My love and heartfelt sympathy to you, Kevin and Abby. Your friend, Marilyn

I took an English course with Katie during my senior year at Dartmouth, in 2007. She was a wonderful presence and always arrived to class with a cup of coffee (it was an early class!) and a smile. We became friendly outside of class and she was a welcome presence at the potlucks and parties held at my off-campus house. She will be missed.

Dear Cullinan Family, We just heard the terrible news of Katy's passing and wanted to extend our heartfelt sympathy. Our daughter Missy spent the early years of grade school with Katy at St John's. We as a family have fond memories of a ski trip we spent with you and the Procknow's in Vermont many years ago. Our prayers are with you at this most difficult time. The McCourts, Hingham, Mass.

Kevin, Dottie, Abby and family. No one can know the depth of sorrow and loss when a daughter dies. We are deeply saddened. You are all in our prayers. Katy is in "eternal happiness". We hope the example of her courageous life and your memories of her will bring some peace to your lives as you grieve. Cynthia and Jay Leader, Beaver Island and Furlong, Pennsylvania.

I really didn't get to know Katie that well but I remember she was always full of energy and always trying to get everyone pumped. She was really good at that. I was really saddened by the news of her departure. I hope the family is coping. God be with you all always.

Dear Cullinan Family-
We will never forget the fun we had with Katie, Becky, Margaret, Patena, Sophie, Sindhura, and Emily - all wonderful Dartmouth friends - at St John USVI a couple of springs ago. Katie was such a happy presence in that house and an instigator of fun. Her laugh and humor are indelible memories. We send love and share gratitude that this lovely young woman entered our lives for those special days in the islands.

We just heard the tragic news about Katy. Please know that our condolences and prayers are with you. We reminisced about Katy and the four great years Becky had with her as a classmate at St John’s. She will always be the sweet, spunky kid who loved to ride the swing and could always make us laugh.
We are all so saddened by your (our) loss.

Dear Dottie, Kevin, Abby and the entire extended family (especially the Kegels, as I knew Mary when we were in school together growing up)
--
My heart goes out to all of you for your sudden and tragic loss of Katie from your physical lives. I am so, so sorry for your pain, loss and grief. We lost my brother Steve in a sudden and tragic way as well in 1994, though he was almost 36 years when it happened.
I did not know Katie personally, but am so thankful from what I have read that she was such a vibrant force in your lives and the world. I can only imagine how great it would have been to know her and how equally painful to lose her so suddenly.
I wish for all of you a deep and abiding peace and understanding of all that has transpired regarding Katie. I also wish for you great love and appreciation of yourselves in being a positive commitment in Katie's life.
For Katie, I pray for her to receive a depth of love, compassion and appreciation for her own life and journey, including the pure love that each of you had for her.
Finally, may each of you integrate this tragic event into your own lives with loving kindness and ease.
My very deepest sympathies,
Sue Holland

I didn't know Cully too well, but I do know what great impression she made on our team members.
She may not know it, but she's changed my life. As a fellow young woman with an eating disorder, I feel it only right to get help in her memory.
Thanks Cully

On the Occasion of My Daughter’s Funeral Mass
I want to thank all of you who have come here today to honor Katy and to support us, her family. I know that for many of you the journey was long: I see faces from as far away as New Hampshire and Virginia, Colorado and California. For others of you, the journey was shorter but harder still, for you have experienced in your families the loss which we now endure; thank you for your special outreach to us.
Especially, I want to thank those of you here today who know personally the struggle which Katy has faced for the last eight years. Dorothy and Abby and I know the courage it takes, day after day, and we know the courage it took for you to come here today. We particularly want you to know that your struggle—Katy’s struggle—is a fight which can be won. Indeed, by objective measures, Katy was winning her fight. Too slowly to suit her, of course, because everything had to be “now” with Katy, but winning nonetheless. She was just too impatient with herself, too hard on herself. So if you would honor her memory, then remember her example of tenacity and progress, forgive her this act of impatience with herself, and never, never, never be afraid to reach out to those who love you.
One measure of Katy’s success in her struggle was her success in her English concentration at Dartmouth, despite the attention-span problems presented by her disorder. Only a few months ago she re-read Scott Fitzgerald’s classic The Great Gatsby. We talked about it. She talked with me excitedly about Gatsby’s belief in the green light, in the possibilities of life, and about how Fitzgerald saw Gatsby as ultimately ennobled by his capacity to believe. She loved that thought.
Later in Fitzgerald’s life, as his own depression was overtaking him, he wrote that “In a real dark night of the soul it is always three o'clock in the morning . . .” That loneliness, the lonely, frightening abyss of such moments, was something Katy knew, too, secretly, for years. But she wanted more than anything else never to burden others with it.
So now and in the years ahead you have it in your power to grant Katy her wish, by the way in which you remember her, if only you will remember her as a luminous and magical young woman whose light and belief in possibility—whose capacity for wonder—graced every life she touched.
And we her family will hold forever in our hearts the image of our slyly smiling little girl, for whose precious soul it need never again be three in the morning.
God bless you, Honey. I love you.

When I heard of this devastating tragedy, memories of Katy amidst life at NCDS flooded to mind: her commitment & enthusiasm on Varsity Soccer and Lacrosse, her willingness to help struggling math students like myself understand new concepts, her theatrical presence, her kind leadership amongst her peers.
As a teammate, Katy was someone you could depend on -- solid, reliable -- and always encouraging others with a positive attitude.
As a fellow Sister in Sacred Heart , my prayers and condolences go out to Katy's family & friends.

Dear Dottie and Kevin,
I was saddened to learn of your loss. We do everything we can to be supportive of our children and in particular protect our daughters from harm.

Please accept our sympathy.

Kevin and family,
A wife who loses a husband is called a widow. A husband who loses a wife is called a widower. A child who loses his parents is called an orphan. But...there is no word for a parent who loses a child, that's how awful the loss is!
My husband and I share your pain. We know the pain of losing a child. No parent should ever have to endure that kind of pain. Our hearts are with you and your family through this difficult time.
We are praying each and every day that you find comfort in knowing that she is with her heavenly father and will be your guardian angel forever.
God Will
Take Care of You,
"He Himself has said,
I will not in any way fail you
nor give you up
nor leave you without support."
Hebrews 13:5
He knows how you feel.
God understands.
He is your provider --
today, tomorrow, and always.
And He loves you.
Cast all of your cares on Him...
and believe.

We were lucky to have spent one evening with Katy during her stay in Austin, TX. We were immediately charmed, and our children were attracted to her like bees to honey. In that one evening, Katy learned to make crepes like a pro, something that I'm sure Julia Child couldn't have done. Her sparkle, smile, energy, intelligence and warmth made a deep and lasting impression on us. We are devastated. Our heartfelt condolences to the whole Cullinan & Kegel family.

It is so hard to believe that someone who was such a fixture at Dartmouth and in our House is no longer with us. I think I speak for many fellow sisters when I say that when I look back on the time I spent with Kate, I can only smile. She was more than just a courageous individual and a great spirit: she was laughter, she was good will--she was unabashed determination.
Kate will be greatly missed by all. My thoughts and prayers are with your family during this difficult time.

I'll miss her vivaciousness, her ability to speak her mind no matter what, and the laughter she brought to my life and I'm sure the lives of everyone around her. I hope you knew what you meant to me and what you'll continue to mean to me. katie, I love you.
