I love and miss you KK... still thinking of you every day!

KK, you will forever be in our hearts. I won't ever forget all the times we hung out and crazy times we had and the class we had together! You were the most outgoing, loving, caring, beautiful, sweetest, crazy, fun, all around most amazing girl that I knew. You are in a much better place now and I can't wait till the day I meet you and God at the glorious gates of heaven. Rest in paradise baby girl! I miss and love you more then you could imagine. My prayers stay with your family!

My condolences go out to Kaitlyn's family. It's hard for me to believe that she is gone. I remember her being the only girl in middle school that didn't make fun of me or treated me poorly. She always brighten the room with her smile

My prayers are with Kaitlyn's friends and family. I am deeply saddened by the news of her death. We got to know her from Kids R Kids #21. My daughter(Bryeanne, 3) was/is very fond of her. She would go into class and run into Kaitlyn's arms....it was very cute how excited they both got. I apoligize for not attending the funeral, I was not aware of the date until after the fact. Please contact me if you need anything. Know that she touched many childrens lives. She not only watched mine, but loved her.

You're forever missed babygirl. Ill never forget you... It still doesn't even feel real to me. I still replay the day we were closing at Forever 21, and some stupid song came on and we just started dancing all crazy and being silly. We tried on some pink and black sparkly tall hooker heels and always talked about going partying together and how my parents were gonna love you... And I know they would have. Just like I do. It still hasn't hit me that you're gone... Tears keep coming everyday and I have yet to find peace or closure.. I know you're in a better place babygirl. It doesnt get easier everyday knowing you're not here. Your fun, bubbly spirit still lingers. I can barely finish this writing without the tears streaming down my cheeks, blurring my vision. It's so hard.. I never even got to say goodbye..

We love you and miss you KK. We will never forget you. Lover Sean and Amber

Kaitlyn and I used to be the best of friends in elementary school before I moved. I remember going to her house and dancing around the room listening to all her kids pop cd's. Even after I moved she wrote me letters over the years to remind me of why we were bestfriends. We lost touch as we got older, but I still cherish all of the memories we shared. She was an amazing friend and person, and I am so deeply sad she is gone. I will continue to pray for her family and loved ones and may god help ease your sorrows.

I love you KK! I will never ever ever forget you.. Rest in paradise beautiful and i'll see ya later <3

I did not know Kaitlyn but I thought I would share my condolences as I lost my brother, David Mason, at 17 years old back in December of 2011. He might of known Kaitlyn as I know alot of his friends do. I will be keeping all of you in my prayers. I am sorry for your loss. I pray that God will give you all the strength to live each day. I pray he provides you with comfort. My heart aches for you all. Please feel free to contact me via email for support as I know the pain you are feeling. I am here for anyone who needs to talk.

Lori there just aren't any words to express how sorry I am for your loss. Let me say this "If you had known the day she was born that you would only have this short 20 years with her, would you have said no? Would you have missed out on all those hugs and kisses and laughter and precious moments she gave you, if you had known it would be so short? I would have to say as a parent, most of us would not want to have missed out on one single moment. All my Love and Prayers  Sue Simmons

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.  May God's grace give you peace, surrounding you with love during this difficult time, as you are reminded of all the memories with your beautiful daughter.

I am so sorry for the loss of Kaitlyn. We had the pleasure of getting to know her during her KO Softball days. She brought us to victory with her winning pitch in a tournament. She was an outstanding player and we all felt like a Big Family that year. She will always be in our heart, she had good team spirit and a winning SMILE.

Michael, Gayle and Kiersten Mills
