It was an honor to be part of your Memorial Service. The mark you've left on the world in those 24 years is huge. Hearing from your Family, Friend's & Co-Workers the love they all felt is huge. This is how all of our lives are measured. 3 of my uncles were police officers & my family also has a history with the military. We all have a great deal of respect for your service. The readings & memories were a wonderful tribute as well. You'll always be by your family's side.

To Miss Katie
May you rest in God's arms at peace.
To the family
May you have a peace knowing this young lady was a giving, caring person. Only someone who had love and compassion for mankind would serve in our military and then serve in law enforcement. She must have had awesome examples to show her that service is the ultimate sacrifice. I only hope her daughter will continue to learn of her mom and her greatness.
God bless

I am so sorry for your loss of such a beautiful soul. I will miss her so much but never, ever forget her. I am so glad I got to meet the family at Rae's first birthday party. My heart hurts for you and I am sending you prayers to help you get through this. I wish I could be there to hug you all but I will be here at her memorial in Virginia. She might have been here on this earth for a short time but she touched a lot of lives and made life better. RIP my friend Katie. We love you.
