My Sister, My Best Friend, My Defender, My Cheerleader, My Confidant

To family and close friends, she was only known as, Katie.

My sister Katie transitioned on Thursday July 6, 2023. This was one of the most 

devastating times in my life, and this is why it has taken me this long to actually, write

these words because it makes it so finite, so real.

I will never see her again, I will never have those 3 hour talks with her again, never have

an argument and then make up and say " I'm Sorry, I Love You Sis. "

Who wore flip flops in winter, in the rain walking on the Campus of USF to her next class?

Katie! She truly marched to the beat of her on drum.

Be Better Than Blessed, Rest Peacefully In Paradise.

I Will Miss You Always, I Will Love You Forever, My Dear Sis.

Your Loving Sis

Marcia

Amber & family,

You each have my condolences! My prayers are certainly with each of you. I met my dearly beloved sister in the Seabrook Neighborhood Association many years ago. We connected and remained  close as biological sisters.

She was my neighbor, friend,  sister, and the fun one at any event we attended. We have shared some great times together.  Andrea loved to dance and would not want to get off the dance floor until the music stopped.

I called her American's Next Top Model.  My friend always looked ready for the runway. She loved to dress & loved her hats. I will miss my friend!!!

I met her through community activism as we planned events with the Seabrook neighborhood and the Milneburg neighborhood in New Orleans. She was also a transplant from the northern bay area from California like I am. She was very spunky at the planning meetings, and always very opinionated. The photo is when we were filling 400 Easter eggs for the community egg hunt at the Boe Playspot. I wish her family love through the grieving process. Stronger as one! MARI.
Thanks for sharing your mother with us Amber. She was one very special to me and I will never forget her generosity or her honesty. Learn some valuable lesson from her and I’m blessed to have gotten the opportunity of knowing and sharing space with Mama B. She will certain but missed but NEVER forgotten!!!
Enjoying good company and goo…

Amber, I  send my love to you. I pray that the God of all comfort will comfort your heart at this time. Your Mom loved you SO much and spoke very highly of you.  Heaven has gained a loving soul.  My dear friend will always be in my heart.  With love and prayers. Charlotte Scott
