KATHERINE MARTELL Obituary
Katherine Martell "Kat" (Age 30)
Katherine was born in Washington, DC on November 3, 1988. She was a resident of Arlington, graduated from Langston High School and worked in real estate and as an independent contractor. She is survived by her beautiful daughter, Allison; her father, Jim Martell; her mother, Jane Martell; her brother and sister-in-law, David and Michaela Martell; and her aunt, Lynn Henry. She was just starting her new life as it was taken tragically away on Tuesday, December 18, 2018. There was no time for goodbyes, but we do know that she is now without pain and resting in God's hands. Although it can no longer be seen on earth, her light is shining in a galaxy of stars that will carry the best of her forward. Visitation will be held at 12:30 p.m. Thursday, December 27 at the National Funeral Home - National Memorial Park, 7482 Lee Highway, Falls Church, VA, where Funeral Service will begin at 1:30 p.m., with burial to follow at 2:30 p.m.

Kat, I think about you all the time. I have a daughter now and wish you could see her! I had a dream about you last week. It's been 5 years but it still doesn't feel real. I miss you so much.
