Katharine went to McGehee with my sisters and then taught me at McGehee in the early 90’s. She was such a fun and enthusiastic teacher. I know she was a favorite in my class. My thoughts and prayers are with her family.

Katharine was my neighbor and I would babysit her sometimes. I haven't seen her since I finished high school, but I'm so sorry to hear about this. My thoughts are with the Gilly family as well as the Hastings family.

John and John John,
Over the past 11 years, I’ve valued Katharine’s friendship, kindness, and thoughtfulness. I will forever miss her great sense of humor and vibrant nature. Memories of Katharine will forever remain deep within my heart. I’ll always remember the love and devotion she had for her family, the pleasure she derived from swimming and running, her kind and considerate manner, her beautiful and welcoming smile, and her amazing persona. Katharine truly was a ‘one in a million’ person.
Her passing truly leaves a void within me. My sincere thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
With deepest sympathy,
Marlene Bake, her friend from the Center of Clayton

I met Katharine through mutual McGehee friends in the mid 70's. I don't believe our paths have crossed since college, but I still remember her warm smile and great laugh. My prayers are with Katharine's family and friends.

John,
I am so sorry about your loss. Katharine and I met in 6th grade and have remained friends since. She was caring, sincere, sweet and fun girl. After the loss of my Mother, she set up my Dad with Katherine's Aunt Nancy. They are still both happily married because of Katharine. Dad used to jog with Katharine at 4:30 in the morning as it was still dark outside. What dedication. She always spoke highly of her son John John. She loved him very much.She will be sorely missed by all. My thoughts and prayers are with you and John John always!!!!

Although I didn't know Katharine well, I met her years ago as a fellow runner. Our conversations consisted of "Good morning" or "Hey" as we passed one another in the park. She and her baseball cap were as steady as the sunrise coming up over the golf course at Audubon. My thoughts are with her family and friends.
