We lost our best friend, sister, mom and grandma. She will be deeply missed, loved and never forgotten. Katherine was an amazing, caring and loving person. She will live on in our hearts forever. I know we will meet again someday and, until then, fly high, our angel, and rest in peace.

We love you, Mom. We love you more, Grandma.
