Vickie and Family, So sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. Deepest sympathies to you, Dr. Jasbir and family.

Thinking of you all and sending prayers and love. So happy and blessed to have known Katie. I enjoyed all our visits during her hair appointments . I know how much she loved each and every one of you and how much she will be missed by all. Her family was her world and she wouldn’t have it any other way.
Vickie and family, it was a pleasure having Katie for a neighbor. She was always kind and friendly. One day I accidentally was locked out of my house and Katie let me wait at her house until my sister returned. I’m sorry that I was not able to visit at the funeral home. My prayers are with you.
