Mel and Vicky Kiser:
Our condolences to you and The Burris family.
It was with great sadness to hear of Katie's
passing.
I will remember Katie and all of the good times
we had at your annual Christmas party and gift
exchange. Also, at Pete's and Rita's Halloween
parties and The Haunted Forrest and Barn. And
all of the fun at The Holiday Acre tree farm
and gift shop. She was such a joy. And our children, Katie, Roy K. Jr., Brian, and neighborhood children, Bobby, and Brent brought all of the adults closer as neighbors.
We had good times! And that is how I will remember Katie. God Bless.

My heartfelt condolences go out to the Burris and Hiser family on the loss of their daughter. I am stunned as I know probably everyone is. I remember her as a little girl many years ago with a sweet smile. I hope you find peace somehow at this dark time. Love to you all.

Mel and Vickie,
What words can one say when your heart is broken. You are right what a very beautiful lady and beautiful smile. My first thought was how pretty and sweet she looks, almost angelic. One thing you have and can never be taken is HOPE. Never lose hope of the mercy of God. No one knows when they will be called, some sooner some later, but it is always for their good and most often sorrow for those left behind. My prayers will always be continued for your family and I hope soon you will find solace in your grief.

Lovingly,
Linda Henry
