I wanted to share this with you....I was watching the video of Katie at work and a co-worker walked by not knowing anything...they looked at her and commented on what a beautiful women who's smile projected a life full of happiness...Katie was certainly a beautiful, loving and caring young women who will now be resting peacefully in the eternal place were someday you will be with her again...
Joe, Kathy and Joey...you will be in my thoughts and prayers everyday asking our
Lord to give you the strength to get through this difficult time...

I am deeply saddened to hear the news of Katie's passing. She interned on my team at the University of Chicago where her work provided valuable contributions to pediatric cancer research. She was such a kind person and my colleagues and I truly enjoyed working with her. I pray that your memories of Katie will bring you comfort during this time.

Katie was my locker partner during our four years at Fenwick. I remember her as one of the kindest, most generous people I have ever met. She always had a smile on her face, and I deeply admired her strength and bravery as she battled her illness. Katie was a very special person. Wishing peace and comfort to the Karas family as you grieve your loss.

Katie was such a kind soul, and so brave. May she rest in peace. It is comforting knowing that she has returned to heaven, and is now in the company of those loved ones who have gone before her.
