I've known Katie since i was in 6th or 7th grade. She was a good friend. Always full of cheer and she was just so optimistic. Its still just so hard to believe she is gone. What those bullies did to such a beautiful young girl is just terrible. She had one of the kindest hearts, and always knew how to make me feel better when i was down. I miss her dearly, but she will always be in my heart.

I never knew your daughter and it breaks my heart to hear about her passing. My daughter went to south at the beginning of the year last year and we had to move her to a new school due to the bullying. I deal with the fact that my daughter is suicidal every day. Luckily she has come to me and asked for help. We continue this every day and hope she gets the help she needs. No parent should ever have to lose a child. rest in peace Katie. Wish we would have known you for the beautiful girl you were.

You were my best friend. I still find it hard to say goodbye because I wish it were all just a sick twisted dream. But im going to have to face reality sometime. I love you Katie and I will miss you and I hope your have lots of fun where ever you are.

Katie will be in my prayers, and famiy as well. I am sorry for your loss. This saddens me.

I am so dearly sorry for the loss of this beautiful person... Katy will deeply be missed by everyone who knew and loved her. If there is anything that we as a society can learn from this tragedy is that bullying hurts everyone and should really be handled differently. I was so touched by the outcry from her loving friends and family. I will always remember the fabulous tutu's and all the gorgeous flowers worn in her honor....

Katy may be gone, but she will never be forgotten... I love you and miss you tons, and always will.

To Kaitlyn's family, I am so sorry you lost this very special girl. Bullying is terrible & somehow needs to be stopped. My 14 yr. old grandson was just telling me that he was bullied when he was younger; my 2 grandsons went to a rich grade school & they were bullied because they were poor. Some kids held my grandson's head down in a fountain trying to drown him, he got away. He suffers from the memories of the things they did to him. I pray that God will comfort you, hold you in His loving arms & help you as you grieve your loss of this precious girl. Sometimes when terrible things like this happen we pull away from God but He truly cares for you & your pain & loss. When I say that I will pray for you I mean it, you are now on my prayer list. God bless your aching hearts with His peace, comfort & strength. Gail Pegg

I am really sorry to hear this sad news. Mikayla, my daughter shared this with me yesterday. She remembers when they were like best friends in grade school when we lived in the same complex. My prayers are with you and your family.

My heart goes out to you and your family. I am so sorry you could not find your way. May the world learn from your loss. From what I have seen/heard you were a beautiful girl taken too soon.

To The Boris Family,
I did not know your daughter. This story saddens my heart greatly. I hope your family can somehow find peace. Kaitlyn seemed to be one beautiful girl. Rest in peace.

This story is so very sad. People can be so cruel and powerful. My heart breaks for Kaitlyn and her family.
I hope all of the kids out there that pushed Kaitlyn to the edge will be condemned by remorse and guilt.

Whitney knew of Kaitlyn and we are very hurt to hear the horrible news, we are very sorry for your loss and hope one day people will grow up and realize no ones perfect everyone has flaws it doesn't make it ok to pick on anyone as a result of all the people out there bullying this is what happens family and friends lose people they truly love and care about, I personally hope anyone and everyone involved in making this beautiful,smart,funny,big hearted,imaginitive young lady feel she was anything less then wonderfull, I hope they never sleep a good sleep or dream a good dream again, its soooo sad that people think its ok to be little other's because them themselves have no life's and are insecure, we will miss you everyday and promise you we are going to help put a stop to all bullying, until we meet again RIP now we can only pray you are happy and at peace <\3

I didn't know Kaitlyn but I read her story and she sounds like a great person. I will do my part to continue to talk to teens about the effects of bullying. All the best to your family

Mr. & Mrs. Boris - I am so sorry for the loss of your daughter. A friend of mine helped with the vigil and I wish I could have attended. Just looking at Katie's beautiful face made me smile. I wish I could have been there to pay tribute to your beautiful daughter. May the Lord help you through this difficult time. Please know that she is safe in Jesus' arms.

Kelly, Denise, Pat and family
we hold you in our hearts and grieve with you over the loss of Kaitie who although she didn't know it touched the lives of so many people. She is continuing to touch more even still. The loss of a child is one of the cruelest things a person can face in life but you are a strong family and you have the love of each other to get you through and above all else you have GOD who knows why this has happened and will reveal all when the time is right please don't forget that there are reasons things happen even if we are left wondering what they could be and it all too often seems the reasons are not good enough to explain these aweful tragedies but know you raised Kaitie with love and were the best parents you could be. You will see her again GOD promises that so hold fast we all love you call if you need anything

Dearest Katie...I know your pain. I was you a long time ago. There is nothing that can make up for the scars created by bullies. I wish I could have talked you thru it, cried with you and helped you get past it. There wasn't a term of bullying when I went thru it. I hope for kids like us in the future that someone is paying attention and stops looking the other way. Bullying is not tolerable when it's happening to you. Some of us just don't know how to ask for help. Rest in peace Katie

I'm a SAHS Alumni and a Former 2010-2011 IMPACT/STRIKEOUT Leader.

I'm deeply sadden for your loss. I wish I would of know this girl or interacted with her but I graduated soon as she was entering high school. She seems like such a sweet girl that was taking from everyone too soon. I know what it's like to be bullied and go through what she did. Tonight, I lit a candle in her honor. I really wished of have to know you, I know I would of been a great friend to you.

You're forever in my heart and forever a beautiful young lady.

All my condolences and love to your family.

Dear Dennis & Kelly, you are in my thoughts and prayers,Katie will always be your Beautiful little girl.
I Love you Both.
Aunt Linda

Dennis & Kelly, we are so sorry for this tragic loss of your beautiful Kaitlyn. May God hold you in his loving arms and give you comfort til you can be with Kaitie again in Heaven. Aunt Marney & Uncle Pete

I am so so sorry to hear of your loss of such a lovely young lady. I lost my father of suicide and know many survivors. This school bullying of kids that are in such a formative, tender stage cannot be tolerated. Pass some legislation to make it an accountable punishable crime.
