together one day again / Meg Patt (sister) A true friendship lasts forever even in seperation In sad times, I know your watching over me Dreams come and dreams go sometimes your in them, sometimes your not But I know you always there in my heart Your own heart always filled with joy, continues to fill mine Those inescapable blue eyes that everyone seemed to fall into With pale skin and a red bow Freckles that brought out the child in you And the beautiful red hair that always seemed to change You'll never escape my mind or my soul, why would I want that? For when the day comes to meet again it will be as if we never parted. March 12th, 2006
YOU WERE SO FULL OF LIFE, ALWAYS SMILING AND CAREFREE, LIFE LOVED YOU BEING A PART OF IT, AND I LOVED YOU BEING A PART OF ME. YOU COULD MAKE ANYONE LAUGH, IF THEY WERE HAVING A BAD DAY, NO MATTER HOW SAD I WAS , YOU COULD TAKE THE HURT AWAY. NOTHING COULD EVER STOP YOU, OR EVEN MAKE YOU FALL, YOU WERE READY TO TAKE ON THE WORLD, READY TO DO IT ALL. BUT GOD DECIDED HE NEEDED YOU, SO FROM THIS WORLD YOU LEFT, BUT YOU TOOK A PIECE OF ALL OF US, OUR HEARTS ARE WHAT YOU KEPT. OUR WORLD NOW SEEMS SO EMPTY, AND IT'S HARD NOT TO SEE YOUR CHEERFUL FACE, BUT PLEASE ALWAYS KNOW THIS, NO ONE COULD EVER TAKE YOUR PLACE, YOU WERE ONE OF A KIND. YOU LEFT WITHOUT A WARNING, NOT EVEN SAYING GOODBYE, AND I CAN'T SEEM TO STOP, ASKING THE QUESTION "WHY"? NOTHING WILL EVER BE THE SAME, OUR HEARTS ARE EMPTY WITHOUT YOUR LAUGHTER, BUT WE KNOW YOU ARE IN HEAVEN, WATCHING OVER US. I DIN'T SEE THIS COMING, IT HIT ME BY SURPRISE, AND WHEN YOU LEFT THIS WORLD, A BIG PART OF ME DIED. YOUR SMILE COULD, BRIGHTEN ANYONES DAY, NO MATTER WHAT, THEY WERE GOING THROUGH, AND I KNOW EVERYDAY FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE, I'LL BE MISSING YOU.
A MILLION WORDS COULD NOT BRING YOU BACK I KNOW BECAUSE I'VE TRIED...... NEITHER WOULD A MILLION TEARS I KNOW BECAUSE I'VE CRIED.....
I THOUGHT THIS POEMSAID HOW ALOT OF US FEEL INSIDE ABOUT KAT.
you will always be my best friend / Meg Patt (sister) you have always been there for me ever since i can remember. we did so many things together good and bad, mostly bad...but it was always fun and it didn't stop us even when we got grounded. we've shared so many new things together, i could tell you anything and not worry about if i sounded stupid and pathetic. i can't believe i've lost the closest person to me, because now there's no one i can find to be there for me like you were, and to share so many things like we did. you were such a huge part of my life that there's no forgetting youand i want to because it hurts so bad not seeing you around. sometimes i think you'll still call me when you come down to visit from hesperia. or maybe you'd be living out here again with your mom or room-mates. we'd both be driving now and so we wouldn't have to if we wanted to go to the park at night so we could swing and talk about boys. how i miss those nights the most. just us two kickin' it at the playground. if i only could have hung out with you one last time, that tuesday night that you called me just before you went to heaven. it will feel like such a long time, but i know we'll be just as good of friends in heaven, probably even better. as you may know from looking down from heaven that i have a daughter now, she'll be 5 months on the 29th of this month. in a way i feel that she came to this earth because you left. like one person is born because one person dies. and i feel that's why she's here. you know her middle name is ann, i gave it to her in your memory. she's kinda got a red tint to her hair to, maybe she'll get red hair just like you! i love you so much. i have two green beaded necklaces in memory of you hanging from my rear view mirror. there's not a day that goes by that your not on my mind. i pray that you are being held in Go's hands all the time, sitting there talking to him and playing games with him. one day i'll be there with you, both of us kickin back making new memories.! my love is with you and your family forevermore.
hey again / Alicia Quintana (cousin)

A Mothers Anguish / Dan Haggerty (Friend of her mom, Anna )
I recently met Katherines mom, Anna, about 5 months ago thru a mutual friend. Right away I could tell that Anna was a very caring compassionate human being. I was dealing with my own emotional breakdown. For the past three years I had been caring for my father who was afflicted with Alzheimers. I had brought him home to live with my wife Robin and daughter Jessica. I wanted him home where he felt safe and loved. I owed him that much. The hard part was watching the disease slowly take him. He did not know who I was, but I knew who he was. When I would see Anna, she always asked how my dad was doing and she would sit and listen. She had a way of allowing me to open up and release. She will never know how much that meant to me. I still was not aware of her daughter, Katherine. The one day I was talking with her and telling her how proud I was of my own daughter and how beautiful she was. ( 19 years old ) Anna told me about Katherine............I was speechless. My first thought was to give her a hug and absorb her pain. This whole time she was helping me deal with my anguish while dealing with her own. Dad passed away 3/31/09. Anna was there at his funeral. We visited Katherines grave and talked about the happy memories. I cannot imagine life without my daughter. I just wanted to acknowledge Anna for the person she is. I never met Katherine,but I've heard alot about her. If she is anything like her mom, she must have been a very special lady. Some day we will know the answers. Until then, you take care Katherine. Your mom loves you. You take care Anna. You're stronger than what you think. Keep Katherines memory alive. Always,
so tomorrow i reallized is yur favorite time of year. besides Christmas and yur birthday. haha
St. Patrick's Day!. it hasn't downed on my yet. but i know how much yu loved that day! i miss yu so much sister. ive been talking to matthew alot. im so glad that me and him are talkin alot more. me and mom are finally getting along. hewwww... i am considering wearing the shirt that has yur picture on it! hehe. well i just wanted to say Happy Saint Patrick's day Katherine

so i have come to realize..that..Katherine... there are no longer anymore words that i can say to describe how much i miss you. you were one of the most important people in my life weather any one beileves it or not.
you know im usually ok but sad...until i look at your pictures..then it really really really hits me that
"oh snap my only sister is gone forever now..in just a blink of an eye"
i can sit here and tell you that i love and miss you...but in my heart i believe that i dont have to say and/or write or type it for you to know it. losing you is slowing killing me inside without me knowing it or being able to stop or comtrol it. people think its easier than it really is. Katherine, that day is forever indented in my head. not that i want it there or not that i want it to be gone. im at the point where....where i just dont know anymore..i really dont...but im keeping my head up and holding in the tears till i am alone in my room once again. and when that door shuts behind me...all the tears and sadness comes out. being strong up front just to make people think that i am ok...its really starting to get hard to do. i wanna just give up on everything...but i know that if u were here you wouldnt want that. so im holding in there just for you.
ok well i feel like i should say more. but my head cant bare anymore....Katherine...just please realize what im going threw and give me advice like you used to...
