Having originally only met Bridget I didn�t really know what to expect of the Wolfe family. But after meeting Katie I remember thinking, �Oh, this is going to be fun for sure.� And it was and is. To me, Katie was a pillar of wit and stability that is a rare combination in this world. She will be missed.

I went to Rosecrans High School with Katie (Class of 1969). Katie�s sense of humor was infectious as was her personality. I last saw Katie at our 40th class reunion and still the same �Katie.� with her laughter and sense of humor. My sympathy to Katie�s family and siblings. Heaven just got a lot brighter with Katie�s arrival.

JIM TIPPINS July 24, 2020
Katie filled the room -the building- the world with a joy and vitality unmatched. She was fun to know and a delight to work with. I am grateful she graced us all with her larger than life joy. She is missed.

John and I are very sorry to hear of Katie�s passing. As with all of the Wolfe�s, so full of life and the ability to make people happy she will be truly missed. Our prayers go out to you

SUSAN BALTZER July 24, 2020
My heart is broken. Katie was my best friend in High School and after. It was Katie, Susan and Sally Class of 1969 Rosecrans H.S. We loved to party and dance. Katie had the best sense of humor of anyone that I knew. I thought it was hilarious as she always called her mother by her first name �Irene�. Last I spoke with her on the phone was when our other good friend, Linda Arnold-Brown passed recently. We were both distraught over Linda�s passing. I know Katie was suffering from medical problems, but she always looked so good in her FB posts. Katie was bigger than life and I�m sure she will be even bigger in death and will entertain all the angels and those that have gone before her. I love you and will miss you, Katie.

JIM MAYO July 24, 2020
There could only be one Katie and we were blessed to have her. To Frank our deepest sympathies. I know your world has been changed in ways we can only imagine. May the God of comfort show you the way.
