While I did not personally know Kathryn I did see her on a regular. Riding her bike or walking up and down Congress and Northlake Blvd. A life taken too soon. She was always smiling. My Condolences to the family.

I was truly shocked to learn of this tragedy. I would always come into Publix late at night and Kathryn would always greet me with a smile one that was genuine. I will miss her dearly. I send my prayer to the family of this amazing young lady.

I was so saddened to learn of this tragedy.
I remember Kat from Publix and from seeing her around town.
She ALWAYS had a smile; and even though I didn't know her personally, I could tell that she had a wonderful, light-filled spirit. My deepest condolences to her friends and family.

I would see Kathryn riding her bicycle up Northlake Blvd to go to work at Publix. I spoke to her about riding her bike and being careful. She always made us smile. She is missed. Our sympathies go to her family.

My family and I are frequent shoppers at the LP Publix store. I read an initial brief piece in the newspaper about a young woman who had been struck and killed but didn't know who it was. It wasn't until I read the larger article in yesterday's paper that I made the connection. I didn't even have to know her name. As soon as I read that it was a young redheaded cashier at Publix that always made people smile, I instantly knew who it was. Kathryn was beautiful both inside and out. She made everyone's day brighter. She was truly a special young woman. Our deepest sympathies go out to her family and coworkers. I know she will be greatly missed by all who came in contact with her.
