Kathryn Cottam Stephenson

I knew her for a very little time and even from the small moments we shared, I still think about her all the time and that part of her will live with me forever. it makes me sad i never got the chance to grow my relationship with her but it gives me great honor that im doing my part in keeping a part of her alive past death.
