Dear Reba and Susan,
I worked with Katie at Chick-fil-A, and she was a joy! I miss her a lot. Thank you for taking such good care of her. You have been courageous, and have filled her last days with so much love. And she felt that love. It has been my very good fortune to know her. God's blessings to you and to Troy in the coming days and months.
