Katelyn Vanhoozer Obituary
March 20, 1994 - September 20, 2021
Weatherford, Texas - In His mercy, God received Katelyn Ariel Vanhoozer, age 27 1/2 on Monday, September 20, 2021. She had injuries suffered in a car accident. She loves Jesus Christ, trusts Him as her Savior, and calls Him Friend.
On March 20, 1994, she was born in Waco, Texas where she played viola with the Central Texas String Academy. She graduated from Judson College in Marion, Alabama. She trained horses, trained riders, and was an equestrian herself specializing in dressage at Vanhoozer Farms in Weatherford, Texas.
A favorite verse she would often repeat is Romans 8:38-39. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
She will be missed by many friends, by colleagues in the horse world, her Grandparents, Barbara & Larry Vanhoozer of Weatherford and Don Kilpatrick of Houston, Parents Russell and Kari Vanhoozer and Siblings, Andrew, Samuel, and Olivia Grace of Bedford, Texas.
She was a benefit to everyone she knew.
Funeral at 10am Friday, September 24, 2021 at Fort Worth Presbyterian Church, 6251 Oakmont Trail, Fort Worth, TX 76132, Interment to follow at Laurel Land Memorial Park, Fort Worth under the direction of Wiley Funeral Home, Granbury.

What a Great Sorrow this puts on our hearts. I have such great memories of Kari and Katelyn with her brothers and sisters coming in to our business and getting Grade-O-Saurus pads and making the kids there own coloring books. My prayer that the Comfort that only God can provide will surround this wonderful family.

Some things in life we just don´t understand. Katelyn´s passing is one of them. Yet, our Savior draws near to heal our broken hearts and remind us that each new day is a gift. I pray my life and the lives of all those who knew and loved Katelyn will shine as hers did; may our sadness surrender to the joy that was so characteristic of her life, and may our tears give way to music.
