Today’s storm will make it difficult for me to be with you in person, but I did want to show my love and support for Kate and her family. I still think of her as "Katie" from our days together at Campbell Elementary. Everyone loved her, and there was a lot to love. She has always been silly yet sharp, quick witted, deeply caring and a fierce advocate for those who face injustices. She was honest and trustworthy and true. I want her children to know how much she loved them and how hard she fought for them. They were her sun, moon and stars, and she gave them her whole heart. Our beloved Kate was so beautiful, inside and out, and those who knew her well will focus on the good, and remember all the light she brought into this world. She will be missed.
