Kath,
Damn it I miss you. Not a day goes by that I don´t think of you. We never got to do all the things we wanted to do together. It´s been 20years. I can´t believe it. I miss everything about you and more. We had so much to learn from each other. I will love you forever my best friend.

I called her Katie, she was the love of my life. I tried to help her as best as I could, I wish I had done more. There are alot of things I would like to say to her but It is to late. I hope you are finally at peace. Its been very hard for me since you passed. You will always be my princess and I will never forget you and your pretty smile for they will be missed and could never be replaced.

Love always and forever, your babies Bryan xoxoxoxoxoxxoxox!!!!!

I met Katie a couple of years ago through Bryan. I just wanted to tell you that your daughter was a very bright, energetic, beautiful girl. She was a wonderful writer and wrote some of the most poignant poetry that I have ever read. I just saw Katie a month ago, right before I got married. We talked a while about what she would wear to her own wedding some day, and spoke with love of her family who would be there. I am sure the last few years have led to frustration and heart ache for you, but I hope you remember your daughter for all of the wonderful things she was to everyone around. She always thought of everyone but herself. I wish I could have done more for her. I will miss her.
