Katie
September 26, 1999 - October 20, 2009
My sweet cousin Katie died tonight.
I am so very sad. Even though I trust that Katie is in the arms of our Heavenly Father and is suffering no more, this is such a tremendous loss.
Katie was a precious little girl. Please pray for her family.

Oh Eloise! I am lifting you and your entire family up tonight! I am so saddened by this news. However, as you said Katie is in a better place. She will never again be in pain! She can run free and do everything her tumor would not allow her to do and most importantly she will live forever in the arms of our Father! She will be waiting for her family and run to them someday, but for now I knwo she is similing down on you all!!
Oh that is so sad. Nothing harder than the loss of an innocent young child. Glad you got to see her so recently. You all will be in my thoughts and prayers.

I am so so sorry for you and her family. Such a beautiful vibrant little girl. It is so hard...so hard.
Peace and strength and blessings.
Oh I am so sorry. Praying for your family, especially for comfort and peace. Sending big hugs!
I'm so sorry, Eloise. My thoughts are with you and your family.
I am so sorry...my thoughts and prayers are with you.
Oh Eloise,
I am so sorry for your and your family's loss. So heartbreaking to lose a child.
You will all be in our thoughts.
I am so sad to hear of your heartbreaking loss. I will pray for your family.
Oh, Eloise, how terribly sad. Nothing could possibly be worse than the death of a sweet innocent child.
Keeping you close in my thoughts.

Oh Eloise, I am so sorry to hear of your family's loss. It breaks my heart to see someone so young and so beautiful leave the world. Praying for you and your family.
I am just so so sorry for this tremendous loss. My prayers and thoughts are with you all. Tragic...
God bless Katie. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. I can't imagine enduring such a loss.
im so sorry for your loss...my thoughts are with your family!
Oh my. You and your family are my in thoughts and prayers. My heartfelt sympathy to you and yours. Xoxo-BLC
I'm so sorry for the loss in your family. I am praying for your family for comfort and peace during this difficult time.
My heart is so heavy for you all. She had such a pure and beautiful smile. I pray that solace will come to her parents, though I know too well how much time that takes. May little Katie's undying love abide with your family. May you feel angels about you, holding you up. I do believe that families can be together forever, that life goes on after this life. I mourn with and for you Eloise. I think of her parents, and it almost takes my breath away, remembering the seemingly unbearable pain. I wish that I could bear some of their pain for them. It is such a lonely journey for a parent to embark on. I am so very sorry. So sorry for all of you.
I am very sorry about the loss of your cousin. I will keep you and your entire family in my prayers during this difficult time.
Eloise...I'm so sorry to hear the news of Katie's passing. What a hard day for you and the rest of your family. Your blog friends wrap you in a big hug and send what little comfort we can.

So, so sorry Eloise. Even the knowledge that Katie now rests in the arms of God doesn't remove the sorrow of her loss. My prayers are with you and your whole family, particularly Katie's parents and siblings.
Eloise, I am so sorry for you and your family's loss. I am so glad you and your children were able to see Katie recently.
You and you family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Oh Eloise, I can't imagine how you and your family must be feeling - and her poor mother! My heart goes out to you and yours. You will be in my thoughts and in my prayers.

I am just so sorry for all of you. Katie looked like just such a sweet little girl.
She is resting in the arms of Jesus and so now I will pray for you and the rest of Katie's family.
Take care-
I am so sorry for your loss. But you are right she is with God and is no longer suffering. Unfortunately, knowing that doesn't always make the loss any easier. I will be praying for your family.
Oh my goodness. My heart is breaking. There is something so wrong about a child dying. Seems un natural. I know God has made her an angel for you. I am so sorry. I will pray for you, both your families.
I am so sorry to hear that Katie has lost her battle. I am keeping you and your family as well as all of Katie's loved ones in my thoughts and prayers. ;(
Oh Eloise. I am so so so very sorry. I am praying for you and your whole extended family. I am sure this loss is devastating. Blessings,
Kim
