Demetra and Deanna:

Dematra,Deanna,and loving mother Katie: May memories comfort you and please remember you have friends who care and your in our prayers. God Bless you all.

Demetra and Deanna, You are both in my thoughts and prayers. Your Mom has made an impact on so many lives and I am a better person for having known her and all of you as well. I will miss giggling with her over our stories. She is in my heart and I thank you for the opportunity and honor to have been a part of her life. She was a friend and will leave an empty hole that will need to be filled with fond memories. My love to you all..
