I don't even know this girl but I wish I could have. I got this site through a friend. Katie seems like a wonderful girl. Everyday since I've read this I think about her and how much I wish I could have met her. I will always keep a special place in my heart for her. ---------<3 Melissa
I have just come across this beautiful site, and I am extremely happy I did. I did not have the pleasure of knowing Katie, however, I can tell from this that she was a wonderful wonderful person. It has brought a tear to my eyes to see how she loved, and was loved by everyone. May you RIP Katie Aylor xoxo
Katie, another holiday without you. We were all home from college these past three weeks and I couldn't help but wonder what it would have been like if you, too, were with us. Where would you have gone? What friends would you have made? It is all kinda weird knowing that you aren't going through the same experiences that we all are. But you have a better life up there and although I'd give anything to have you back, you're in a better place. Love and miss you Loddy. Always in my heart! Haley
I came across this site while I was generally browsing the Internet and I am very touched by this tragedy. I read the articles of how the accident happened and I got emotionally upset. I feel for Katie's family and friends. Looking through the website it is very clear to me that Katie had MANY friends and really did get a lot out of her life by all the events that she did while she was alive. Its just a sad shame that death came to Katie at such a early age of her life and in everyone's eyes this is so unfair. She looked like a great person to have has a friend, she looked full of life and is a very attractive young girl. I do hope that times are getting easier for you all as you all well know that she is looking down on you all and giving that 'cheeky' smile that she has. Many thanks and best wishes. Liam, 23, England
Hey, I wrote in this site a while back. I come to this site every day. I've gotten to where I feel like I knew Katie. I'm so sorry about that day. I've printed out pictures, readings, wrote poems, etc.. about her. I lost my twin sister too in a car wreck. She jumped in front of the car and pushed me out of the way and she died 2 weeks afterwards in the hospital. I miss her dearly and I really miss Katie like I miss my sister. Right now I have tears in my eyes. Please, if you have msn or yahoo, add me. Msn= lauralei@coolteenchat.com yahoo= amandae1122@yahoo.com. Email me at the yahoo one. I love you guys so much. I hope to talk to you and the family soon. Love always, Amanda Eastwood
I know what it is like to lose a loved one in an accident. I lost one brother three years ago and another brother and a sister-in-law on Memorial Day, 2004. I just happened to find your site and I could identify with you so much. I think that this site is a beautiful thing and a wonderful way to remember and celebrate the life of a beautiful young soul like Katie. I did not know Katie, and I am sorry that I did not have the chance to meet her. There is no way to console anyone who suffers this kind of a loss, but I think that it helps knowing that people are there to support you. I will keep you in my prayers. God bless you, and keep you, Aylor family. Cory Justin Glidewell coryglidewell@cebridge.net
Hey Katie:) I haven't been here a while, but I think of you often and at times I know you're with me. Rest in peace and I hope to go to heaven to see you there. :)
Katie, U need to be here right now! So much is going on and it's crazy you are not here!! I am coming to visit you soon before I move, so be waiting for me! Love and miss u little girl Ashley *BASH*
Hey Katie!! It's Dani. I just wanted to write ya and let you know I finally had my baby!! He is so precious. I still wonder if you can see everything going on down here. I hope you can! I will always tell Kellen (my son) about you. I wish so bad that you were here to see him and be excited with me. With everything that has happened the past 3 years, I can FINALLY say that I am very happy with life. Though my boyfriend & I did not plan to have a baby this young, I do believe God gave him to us for a reason. Everything in my life for the past three years has brought so much heart ache and it started with August 27, 2002 when I lost one of the greatest friends I've ever had. After that most everything went downhill and I started not caring about life. Thank God for my son b/c I now have a different outlook on life and I truly feel blessed. I miss you Katie and I wish everyday that you were here. I will ALWAYS tell Kellen about you!! Can't wait to see you again. *With all my love* Dani
Dear family and friends. A few words in Dutch. Het was mooi om de site over Katie te zien, het emotioneerde me erg. Ik hoop dat de familie van Katie de kracht weer heeft gevonden om verder te leven. Groeten van Sander uit Holland. All the best to you all.
Hi, I am writing to you from Germany. I just found this page on the internet. It's a wonderful page about a wonderful girl. Although I don't know her, I am sure that she is watching us from heaven. The world has lost an angel... girl from Germany
Hi! I'm a German boy! I can feel with you! I had lost my little sister if she was 12 year's. That was over 4 years ago. I was real hard! But now I have it understand! In Memory of Katie an my sister Lara! I hope you can read my English, its not so good!
I never exactly met Katie because I live in MN but from reading all the things you say about her it makes me cry because she sounds like a beautiful person and was so happy. Your family photos are full of love and joy. She sounds like she had some really amazing friends. All this made me cry because I don't know what I would do if I lost my sister and it hurts to know that some one you loved the most isn't visually there. I hope this helps you know that even someone who never met her can think so gratefully of her~ Amber LaValle
One of my fondest memories I can vaguely remember, was a cheerleading practice one night during basketball season, I believe. It was the year that I was in seventh grade & Katie was in 8th. It was the year she was my big sister for the season. See, we all had to wear matching practice outfits, from cheer camp, and the matching ribbons in our hair. That night I remember walking into the gym at Berry Middle School & noticing Katie first, standing out, the center of attention, with a bunch of the girls' ribbon's from her squad, tied around her head in a goofy way to make everyone laugh. Katie was always making everyone laugh, or getting into some kind of mischief. I was so proud to be her little sister and was so proud of how well she could perform the difficult dance the 8th graders took to competition that year, I looked up to her so much & am still in awe of beautiful lil Katie, who continues to captivate so many, through the legacy she left behind. Katie was the star, her laughs & smiles were always contagious, and continue to be so, to this day, because she is forever imprinted in our hearts. Thanks for the memories Katie Marie.
I never knew Katie, I came across this site by accident and I'm so glad I did. This is a beautiful thing. I found my self reading every message that her loved ones left her and I just sat here crying. I've never heard of anybody who has touched so many lives, and even now that she's not here with us on earth, she's still proceeding to do so. I have never lost anyone close to me and I can't even begin to imagine what the people who loved her are going through. Thank you for sharing her life and love with everyone, including those who never got a chance to know her presence. J. Jones V.T.
Hi I didn't know your daughter but I found this web site thru my friends web site who died on Valentine's Day. You have probably heard of him, Joey Adams? I just wanted you to know that I don't know what it is like to lose someone as close as a daughter or a sister but I was very close to Joey when he passed so I do know what it's like to lose someone that you love. You are all in my prayers and just know that people do care and they do listen. If you ever need to let something out we made a web site for Joey. It's www.joeyadams.org and we have great people that are apart of it that would listen. ~Love~ Jen Dunaway
Katie you are the best cousin a girl could have! I Love U.- Allie
Little Katie....although I am busy with school, I still find time to come to the website and visit you. You are still missed more than ever. I think about you and Brandi often...always in my prayers. Love and miss you both.-BA
I am very sad. Fred in France

RIP! p.s. tell Sarah I love her and miss her more then ever! And tell her I hope she's there for her birthday party.. watchin over us! I love all my angels!
I wasn't fortunate enough to have a WHOLE bunch of memories with Katie, but the ones I do have stand out in my mind. Some of my fondest memories of Katie, was almost every time we would be at a party we would have the best talks... The last night I spent with her was the Friday before the accident. We were at Megan's house after the football game... We sat and talked at Megan's, just she and I for over an hour. Just talking about a lot of things. I loved it! She was the best person to have those in depth conversations with. We also sat up talking at Michelle's house... just her & I, when Shell had a party in May, 2002. Those were my fondest memories of Katie, b/c we talked about a lot of things and it felt like I could have talked to her forever.
Another memory I have of Katie, was at the football game the Friday before the accident. Katie, Jenny, Brandi, Slaven, Michelle, Courtney & I were all leaving the Lebanon/Mason game b/c the game had taken a 40 minute break b/c of lightning. While walking out of the game Katie, Slaven, & I were walking and talking and Brandi and Jenny and the other girls were ahead of us... There was a REALLY REALLY tall girl standing outside of the gate doing cartwheels, and Brandi & Jenny started clapping and laughing at her, lol, but the girl didn't see that it was them, all she saw when she turned around was Katie, Me, & Slaven... Well the girl was really ticked b/c she thought it was us that had done it... so she started cursing at us and just going off... Slaven & I just ignored her, but Katie turned around and told her what she thought and that we hadn't done anything.. imagine that, haha. This girl was about 4 times Katie's size.. not only was she TALL but she was kind of heavy set, needless to say she could have squashed Katie just by sitting on her... well anyway Katie turned around and the girl kept yelling so Katie walked over and got right in front of her, haha, I remember being really freaked out b/c I didn't know what to do... I couldn't believe someone as little as Katie was standing up to this HUGE girl... well Katie and her kept discussing the "incident" and Slaven and I were just standing there not knowing what to do, this girl could have pounded all of us. Jenny & Brandi turned around and saw what was happening so they ran over and got in front of Katie and the HUGE girl just left... I have never in my life seen friends stand up for each other like these girls did for each other, Brandi & Jenny didn't hesitate for one minute to run over there and protect Katie. It was awesome.. but the whole way home we were all laughing at how Katie just went right up to her... Katie kept saying how "fired up" she was, haha. It was definitely funny. Love You & MISS YOU A LOT KATIE, *Dani*
I did not know Katie but I got her website off of Kelly Foster's website. She was such a beautiful girl and I know she is dearly missed. We have had so many teen deaths in Dublin, Georgia. It's just making everyone realize to get your life right now while you still have the time. No one is promised tomorrow. Trust in God and everything will be great. I know she is very missed along with all the other teens. JL
I know I might not know Katie, but she sounds like a wonderful person and a pretty one I might add. When I first read all the comments and the story it just put me to tears. I'm really sorry for what happen. Much Love Amie,12years Ontario
I'm sorry I didn't get the honor of knowing Katie. From all the stories I've read she is quite an incredible young lady. Even though she is gone from us, God has a special place for her in Heaven. Katie, if you're seeing this please watch out for all of us! My prayers and thoughts goes out to Aylor family and friends. Nate
KATIE, TOMORROW IS YOUR BIRTHDAY AND I KNOW THERE WILL BE A LOT OF US MISSING YOU MORE NOW THAN EVER. I HAD TROUBLE SLEEPING LAST NIGHT AND AROUND 3 AM. IT HIT ME THAT IT WAS GOING TO BE YOUR BIRTHDAY. MY FAVORITE KATIE BIRTHDAY MEMORY WAS OF HER VERY FIRST BIRTHDAY. IT WAS 2-1-87. HER AUNT JAMI AND I TRAVELED UP TO KETTERING TO CELEBRATE THE SWEETEST GIRL IN THE WORLDS BIG DAY. HER MOMMY HAD MADE A LAMB SHAPED BIRTHDAY CAKE TO LET HER EAT. THE CAKE WAS A TRADITION IN KAROL'S FAMILY. IT LOOKED SOMEWHAT LIKE A LAMB\DOG. AFTER A FEW MINUTES KATIE HAD DESTROYED THE CAKE MADE WITH LOVE. SHE WAS COVERED WITH IT. SHE WAS SO BEAUTIFUL, TWO BIG BLUE EYES STARING OUT OF ALL THAT MESS. SHE JUST SAT IN HER HIGH-CHAIR WITH A SMILE. IM GLAD I COULDN'T SLEEP AND REMEMBERED THIS BEAUTIFUL MEMORY. THANK YOU KATIE. LOVE UNCLE STEVEN
KTA happy early birthday baby. I can't believe tomorrow you would have been nineteen years old. I miss you so much not even words can express it. You were an angel and I know your watching over all of us now. I love you so much sweetie. Love Chelsea
Katie, Brandi, and the Aylor Family : Just like many comments on this page I did not have the pleasure of ever meeting Katie. I live in Virginia and although I have not experienced the death of a loved one I truly give all my blessings and wishes to you all, especially today - Katie's 19th birthday. Just by reading comments and looking through your pictures - she has inspired me. Katie was smiling in them all, and you can tell that she shines through everyone she meets. Katie's compassion for life is beautiful. Please keep this website up, it is an amazing way to keep Katie's light alive. The world would be blessed to have more people like her in it. My prayers, thoughts, and love go to the Aylor family and Brandi's family. Keep hope and faith in God, I can tell Katie would. Happy Birthday Katie Aylor! -Ashlie, 16
Happy Birthday Loddy! I love you my sweetness. Know that I am thinking of you all day and always! Miss you tons. -Haley
Happy 19th Birthday Lil Katie Marie.....<3

Happy Birthday Miss Katie A! I hope you are having a crazy party up there somewhere! Just wanted to wish you love and a happy birthday!-Monica
Miss Katie, Happy 19th Birthday! Although I celebrate your life on a daily basis, today I wear your heart around my neck and celebrate everything that you continue to do in my life and the lives of others. Thank you for your continued presence in my life. I miss you, Love, Coney
Happy Birthday baby girl. Love, Dylan
Katie I didn't know you but my prayers go out to you and Thasa. Please, PLEASE say hello to Thasa for me**
Happy 19th Katie!
Just like many of the other people I stumbled across this website a little while ago! Every time I read the memories and thoughts of all Katie's friends and family I tear up knowing how badly they are missing her. I wish I could have gotten the chance to know her because she seemed to be the absolute best person to be around, and she was way beyond gorgeous! To all of her family and friends and Dylan I am so very sorry for your loss; but God knows when he needs his special angels back in heaven with him. Happy birthday Katie! Just knowing you are up there watching over everyone makes me feel very comforted! You are the most beautiful angel God ever had! Oliver Heeg from Germany!
Happy 19th beautiful Katie Bug! Love you always-Lucy Bug
Happy 19th Birthday KTA! Have a good time today with B-Sue :) Even though I didn't personally know you, I know you are watching over me, and thank you! Love and miss you!!
Hey KT-Bug! Happy 19th Birthday! I wish you were here to celebrate but I know you are up in heaven having a wonderful time. I love you and miss you. Can`t wait til the day we meet again. ~ Love Megan
Happy birthday beautiful! I remember your 16th birthday when we went cosmic bowling and we didn't get back to your house until 1:30 in the morning and your mom was mad at us, but what a great time it was. I miss you Kate...so much. I wish you were here so we could celebrate it, love you. -niknak
I never met Katie but I wish I would have. I heard about Katie through my best friend Danielle. Katie seemed like an awesome girl and so much fun to be around. Yesterday was Katie's 19th Birthday and I was at her house with Danielle and her baby Kellen visiting her mom. It's so amazing how her family deals with this tragic accident. Katie's mom Karol is an inspiration to me just after meeting her and talking to her for only about 3 hours. Katie has so much love from her family. When I walked into her house all I saw was Katie EVERYWHERE and it was absolutely amazing, it felt like she was right there with all of us. Even though I never met her I still want her to know that she is someone that just so happens to go through my mind every day, and I am so very grateful for that. Katie, I have to tell you....so many people say that you come into their lives and change them and maybe you were never in my life but through this website and being on it all the time and being at your house meeting your family, seeing where you grew up you have definitely came into my life in a different way and made me a different person in many ways. Thank you...Everyone will always miss you. Karol, Jeff, & Joel I am very sorry about your daughter and sister. Happy belated 19th Birthday Katie....Love Brooke
Katie and Brandi, it's been such a long road without you here! I miss you so much and I wish you were still here to experience life. I think about you everyday, not a day goes by that I don't. I miss your smile and laughter and the way you always found a way to brighten someone's day. I wonder what your doing all the time! I hope you and Brandi are well and having the time of your life. You both mean so much to me and you both will always have a place in my heart. Its so hard to believe that you aren't here in person, But I know Heaven opened up its golden gate and welcomed you 2 angels in. You and Brandi truly define what a precious angel is, both so beautiful and loving. One thing I can say that I learned is to never take life for granted and if you love someone let them know because there might not be that second chance... **R.I.P. my beautiful angels** I know your looking down on us your friends, and family... Hope to see you someday, Up in Heaven! I love you Katie and Brandi... Missing and loving you always and forever.... KATIE HAPPY 19TH BIRTHDAY LOVE, D
As a lot of the people who come to this site, I didn't know Katie! I am a German girl and Katie is only 2 weeks younger than me! I think it is so terrible what happened to her and Brandi! Katie was such a beautiful girl and as I read she was so lovely! I am so sorry for her family and her friends and I can hardly understand why God let her die! Even though I don't know Katie I think of her and hope she is having a great time in heaven! Happy 19th birthday Katie and keep watching over your friends and family! Maria
Just thinking about how much we all miss you and B-Sue! Love you girls, can't wait to see you again. Keep it real beautiful angels!
I just want everybody to know that I lost a family member before so I know how you feel. So it's alright I can tell by reading this she is in heaven and will always be there/stay there..... Love always Emily
First of all, Happy Belated Birthday Katie!! I hope you had a great one! I have visited this site so many times and each and every time I think about writing something here but I never really know what to say...I am not really sure why, because I think of you and Brandi daily. So here I am, finally, just saying Hi and letting you know that your always on my mind and in my heart! I miss you girls like crazy, even though I didn't hang out with you all that much. But I did hang out with you girls just enough to have some great and unforgettable memories! I love you girls with all my heart and I can't wait to see you again!
Hello I am 16 year old girl who just came across this site. I think it is amazing that you would do something like this for such a beautiful girl. My brother was in a car crash in 2002 also, down in St. George Utah. I really feel so bad for you and hope for the best in life. Your poems were amazing. This site was great and well thought up. I wish you guys that best!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATIE!!
Although I never had the opportunity to u, I just wanted to say you and your family + friends are in my thoughts. It's clear u were loved more than anything and u are missed a great deal. You're a very pretty person on the inside and outside from what I can see. Rest In Peace xxxxx
I'm from New York and although I never got to meet Katie, her family, or her friends I feel very touched by this website. It must really be hard for a family to lose somebody they love so much. She is beautiful and I hope the best for her family. This website of Katie is very nice and it's nice to know people are still thinking about her today. R.I.P. Katie - Jesse

Hi, my names Colleen...I didn't know Katie and she didn't no me. I don't even no how I found this site but I'm so happy I did. Reading all of this and looking at her pictures made me feel like I knew her. Just last year I lost my best friend to an accident an I know the feeling.. It's hard. I've been in a hole this past year trying to forget my memories of me and my BFF. This site made me realize that even though they are gone doesn't mean you have to forget them. So I have been thinking a lot about me and my friend it has helped so much. One day I hope to meet Katie, up there. Katie, Brandi and my friend will live on in my heart forever! Much love 4 u guys ~Colleen
KT, It's been awhile but you know I'll never forget about you or Brandi. I spent sometime today reading some of the newer entries and what kinds of people you are still moving. Looks like you've been spending your time traveling the world helping people who need it to read about your amazing life. Every where from Russia, Germany, Asia, and there was even an entry in true German. No matter where you've been touching peoples lives, the message is always the same. You are an amazing influence on everyone who grows to know you. Most of us got to know you in the flesh, your best friends were always the ideal for my future friends. Even those who didn't know are still being touched daily by your life, no one will ever be able to forget you. Keep watch! St. Louis
I don't speak English very well. I think she is and will be forever a very happy girl.
Hey KTA, I haven't stopped in for a while. But that doesn't mean I don't think of you. Happy Belated birthday hunny! 19 WOW! I miss you KTA. You and Brandi keep watching over all of us. Love and Miss You Tons, Melissa K
Katie and family....I don't know you Katie, but you are absolutely gorgeous. It is a heartbreaker that you had to leave the world like that. This site is a great site! It is a great way to touch you. I know you are watching over us. It looked like you had a lot of fun times. With all of my love. Take care up there! *Whitney*,15
*Hey. I am Amelia and I am from MASS. I don't really know how I found this website but when I saw it I just don't no what happened. This is so sad. I don't even know Katie but I really feel like I do. All the songs in here there all so sad. It reminds me of my best friend Amber she died also, very tragically. She slit her wrist, her life was bad. I miss her very very much. She's my best friend and she's gone. I mean she was there for me, she had my secrets kept, now I have no one to tell my secrets to. No one there for me. This is not about Amber though. Well when I saw this I just can't think of what all of Katie's friends are doing because you and Brandi are gone. They all seem to love you both lots! I would certainly go crazy if you two left and I knew you both. I went crazy when Amber left me here. I didn't even get to say bye, or that I loved her very much! Well Katie and Brandi, I know that you two will NEVER be forgotten...Rip =( ..Much Luv Melia___xOo
Just wanted to say how much admiration I have for all the people who input into this website in every form. Its truly a beautiful creation just like Katie was. I keep coming back to this site, learning more about her through the people who loved her. I have the greatest respect for all those people, I could never contemplate losing someone I loved and wanted to let you know my thoughts and prayers are with you. The Aylor family is a real inspiration. Thank you for sharing your daughter/sister/friend with me, and don't you worry I'll be sharing your angel with everyone in Nottingham, England. Love and hugs Hannah x
I'm from Curitiba, Paraná, Brasil and I was an Exchange student at LHS in 2001. I lived with the Ramsey family, Mike and Linda, and had study at Lebanon High School, but I didn't get the chance to meet Katie. I'm very sad about what happened to her, I'm sure she was a wonderful girl. I also almost died in a automobile accident, and I can't move my right arm anymore. I'm sorry about what happened to her. I wish all the family and friends all the happiness the world can give to you. God bless you all and always. In the case you want to contact me my e-mail is lilithsmall@yahoo.com.br
Hi Katie's family and friends.. I am very sorry to hear about Katie, I am only 12 years old, I come from England so now I know some news from different part of the country. I've read nearly all of this page and I will carry on reading until I finish. Whatever I do, whenever I do it, why I do it, I will always be thinking of many loved ones who have died around the world including Katie. She is and always will be pretty and have a great smile up there in heaven. I could certainly say she is watching over her loved ones and let her be blessed and the people who bless her be blessed. Thank you for taking up your time to read this and hopefully now you will realize how lucky we are. February 1st - Every year on that date I would say Happy Birthday and send many hugs and kisses up to Katie :D Love Sophie Hector - London
Happy Very Belated Birthday Katie Bug!!!! happy big 19!!!!! love ya xoxo *Jillian Bennett*
Wow, this site literally had me crying my eyes out. I found this site awhile back and ever since I've looked at life from a new perspective. KTA is touching the lives of everyone, everywhere, everyday, every second. God Bless all her family and friends and Dylan. My brother lost his best friend this past summer and now I realize how unbearable the pain can be. I'm truly sorry, from the bottom of my heart. God Bless everyone of yall. KFTN
You are such loving parents to have done this for your daughter, and even more to have kept it up to date. Good job.
It's fantastic to see what love can do.... I never met or saw Katie, but I think she was very special to many people... I live in Italy I found this link I don't know why...I've read anything...I'm very sad... Ciao Katie
Hello, I came on this site by a link of a search site, and I was completely stiffen when I read the story about this young girl. I've completely glance through the story, respect for all the people who started this site, and keep it up to date, to keep the memories alive. Greetings from Holland (Europe), Roeland Trietsch ( rtrietsch@hotmail.com )
I came upon this website this evening, and have spent the past hour and a half reading everything on this site about Katie. It has made a profound impact on me. In reading everyone's testament to Katie and to her memory, I feel that even I have known Katie forever. In keeping her memory alive this way, and in opening up her life to everyone, you are certainly making a huge impact on not only Katie's life, which still lives on, but in the lives of so many people who read of Katie on this site. Life is a beautiful thing, and I feel that Katie lived her life to it's fullest...you can tell just by the look on her face in all of the pictures. I have a sister, and ironically, her name is also Katie. I am almost 18 and she is 16. Her and I are not that close, but as a brother, I cannot imagine losing a sister. Joel, I am sorry for your loss. You both look so happy in the pictures. Mr. and Mrs. Aylor, I just want to say to your family thank you for presenting the life of Katie in this deeply moving website. You have made an impact on my life. Katie's legacy will live on forever. Jesse Royce, Kamloops BC Canada jesse_royce@hotmail.com
I was searching for "From this Moment" by Shania Twain to have it played at my wedding in June 2005 and came across this website in my search. How amazing it is that one person can touch so many people's lives, both those people who were lucky enough to have known Katie and those of us who have just stumbled across this website. She is a beautiful girl and certainly someone that you would love to meet. Katie's family and friends, you are truly blessed to have known and loved Katie.
Hi, I just happened to come across this site while doing searches for photos of vintage Drive-In Theatres and came across the photo of Katie and Nikki at the Drive-In. I was unknowingly sidetracked and must have spent nearly half-an-hour viewing your pictures and getting a rare glimpse into the life of a beautiful young girl and her family. It brought a tear to my eye as I cannot imagine losing a family member so young and full of life. Peace to your family and godspeed Katie. - Rick "Ripstick"
Katie...Still so pretty in every way. Your image never seems to fade with time. Every time I look at your beautiful pictures, I realize there is more to life then little petty things. Every time I get down on myself, I think "things could be worse." Your image comes to mind, when I feel this and realize the importance of life. Katie you came into this world and left footprints on the hearts of many. I believe God has a plan for all of us, as for you he found a pretty little girl almost three years ago to be apart of it. Its just so hard to believe what happened to you and Brandi, happened to two good girls. The impact you have had on others will live on for the rest of their lives. Much love Katie, such a wonderful angel you are...Zack Resetar
Hi, I'm an Italian boy. I don't know Katie. These words are for her and for you : Katie is like a star. We can't see her but we know that she exists.
Katie, wow you still are touching people. You are so amazing. I still have the hardest time doing this. Katie there is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you. I have a picture of you in my dorm room and guys come in and ask who u are because they think you are beautiful. I tell them the stories, but my favorite is that I get to tell them I was your first kiss and you were my first kiss. I kind of brag so I hope u don't mind. Katie I love you and I really really miss you. I hate it that I never told you how much I liked you I'm sorry. I love you! Love, Shaun Clarke
Hi, As I was googling pictures for Ciara for some reason I came across this site, in which I truly could not remove myself from what so ever. It is extremely sad for what happened to Katie and her friend. For some reason God takes good people away, so young, but in reality I believe that it must of been her time to be an angel....By the way I am MTV VJ Hilarie Burton not that makes a difference but I thought this was a great way to remember someone. Much love Hilarie
Best Friend by Stephanie
You're the one who's by my side when no one else is there. You're the one I can always count on, You always seem to care. You help me through the tough times, and when I've lost all hope, you cry with me at sad times, and laugh at all my jokes. You never seem to judge me or ever put me down, you put a smile on my face, when ever you see a frown. You're better than a sister. You're more than just my friend. you have a special place in my heart. That's why your my Best Friend. From James Hibbard with love.
I did not know your daughter, for I came across this site by accident. I was looking for art with flowers in it. In this site, the budding seeds of relentless love and warmth continuously bloom, where the fragrant scent of memory holds each image, every word to be taken like floral colors painting the first days of spring, the renewal of life, the affirmation of love. Your site is not only a fitting tribute to your daughter, but your love affects those who did not even know her. Though I am thousands of miles away, I am reminded how full, how wonderful a life can be, albeit one that was too short.
Hi, I'm Indijana. I don't know Katie but when I read that she died and how you all still miss her, I just cried. I'm so sorry for you guys and keep up the good work with the scholarships cause that's great. Well bye xoxo Indijana
Katie was more than a best friend to me. She was like my sister. That's why I started writing a book about her and Brandi. Now they are looking down on us. Sorry, but happy belated birthday Katie bug. You were always the one I could talk to. Now I only have your picture to look at and so many memories to remember. I know you are up in heaven now watching us everyday. Love you always, James Hibbard
Hello, I just passed by. . . this site is beautiful! I hope they do the same to me if I died too... Melissa (16 years)
I came upon this site from a search engine and got caught up reading the stories about this amazing girl. I cry like a baby when I view this site, and I didn't even know Katie...so this girl obviously was amazing. It's so great you all are keeping her alive with this site and the wonderful memories. You all are forever in my prayers. God Bless...Rachel (sgtcarter@comcast.net)
This site is so incredible.. I had came across it in a google search and saw the beautiful picture of Katie and when I clicked on it , it was amazing. God bless her and your whole family. : ) She looks just like her mom. She was too young for all this and I just recently lost a beautiful friend who was only 16 on Dec. 30, 2004 in a bad motorcycle accident in the state of Maryland. Even though I had never met Katie, it's amazing how she had touched so many people that didn't even know her. I will continue to visit this site now that I have found it and God bless you all and her friend Brandi as well. Brian
I NEVER KNEW KATIE EITHER BUT SOMEONE HAD ME LOOK THIS UP AN I WANTED TO SAY IM SORRY SORRY ABOUT EVERYTHING. GOD BLESS BECKY
I never knew Katie, because I came on the site when I searched for pictures. I believe it was meant to be that I came on this site. It has changed me. When I saw all the overwhelming and beautiful reactions I just started crying. I believe she was a amazing girl and I wish had some of the beautiful qualities she had (and still has). I hope this angel will be in your hearts forever, she will be in mine. NJ from Holland (sorry, but I'm not very good in English)
To Katie and her family, I'm sorry for your loss of your beautiful daughter and sister. No, I don't know what it feels like to have a daughter pass on or a sister but I have a 23 yr old brother and if he keeps driving the way he does now I might know how it feels. Once again I'd like to say I'm very sorry to hear that anyone has to pass on at such a young age. I love this website and it did make me a little teary eyed (ok a lot teary eyed) but please respond to me at softbalchick101@yahoo.com thanks you good luck Sincerely Samantha
I remember her great smile and how she laughed and that she always helped me when I felt bad. She was the nicest girl ever and I'm so sad now it makes me cry thinking about it. Well I love you guys.
I had just posted a comment yesterday but I wanted to leave another.. Ever since I found this site I truly have not stop thinking about it. I have constantly been getting on here looking at all the cool pictures and getting to know her. It's almost like I knew her just from all the wonderful stuff of her on here. I even had to go get the Diamond Rio song you guys have playing on the home page. I've probably said this already before but even being all the way in Ohio and I in Maryland, It's amazing in what a wonderful person can do and how they can touch so many lives of even the people that never knew her. I just cant get over it. I cry every time I get on here listening to the music and looking at these pictures.. God bless you precious angel, Katie we know your truly in heaven protecting your family. And god bless you, Mr. & Mrs. Aylor and brother Joel.. Hope to keep in touch.. Brian from Maryland
Hey KT-Bug, I've been thinking about you and Brandi a lot lately. I miss you girls so much and I can't believe that it has been 2 1/2 years. I still can picture you girls and I remember our last day together like it was yesterday. I know both of you are wonderful and I can honestly say that I'm the luckiest girl in the world because I have two beautiful angels that watch over me every day. Love you both with all my heart and miss you tons!! Love, Meg
Dearest Katie...ever since I came upon your site while searching the web for a song, you've touched my heart. I am thinking of you every day, even though I have never met you, it feels like I have known you all my life. Everyday I look up at the sky, think of you and speak to you. I miss you! I wish I had the chance to really really know you but I am so thankful you are in my life and in my heart now You've changed my life girl! I lost my girlfriend a year ago and I miss and love her still so so much I am sure you 2 are very close friends up there! =0) Thinking of that, makes me smile through all the tears I cry. Katie, I know you look down to me and know how I look up to you, reading all this here, the pictures, your smile...you must have been AND still are a wonderful person! Hopefully, one day I will have the change to meet you and Brandi, see your smile for real. There's this song in Dutch that reminds me so much of you and my girlfriend. It's in Dutch but I am sure you will understand the words... LUCHTBEL ik weet nog alles van die dag als het tenminste 1 dag was want dit verhaal speelt zich af buiten de tijd ik herinner me je lach als het tenminste een lach was want je grimas gleed eraf ik was je kwijt je was weg en het voelde net alsof je nooit bestaan had heb ik jou dan zelf bedacht? jij was toen, jij bent nu je zit in een luchtbel jij was daar en jij bent hier en die luchtbel zweeft ver weg maar houdt je levend ik zie nog steeds het lege glas als het tenminste 1 glas was want alle drankjes reken je af buiten de tijd ik herinner me een grap als het tenmiste een grap was want het gelach gleed ervan af ik was je kwijt je bent weg soms is het net alsof ik nooit bestaan heb heb je mij dan zelf bedacht? ik was toen, ik ben nu ik zit in een luchtbel ik was daar en ik ben hier en die luchtbel zweeft ver weg maar houdt ons levend alles toen is alles nu het zit in een luchtbel alles daar is alles hier en die luchtbel zweeft ver weg maar houdt ons levend.
Katie, thank you, I love you! Dearest Katie's dad, mom, brother, boyfriend and friends, All these memories makes me cry, she was so loved and still is! I still wish you all the strength! I am a 19 year old boy from Holland, Europe and if anyone would like to share some more memories of Katie with me, please mail me at farewell_for_now@hotmail.com, I would love to know more about this angel that has touched my heart, changed my heart and all of your lives and hearts... p.s. I will translate the song in Dutch soon... XXX Joost from Utrecht, Holland
I came across this site after a friend mentioned it to me. I didn't know Katie at all, nor do I even live in the same city. I'm from Toledo, OH and twice now at my high school, the same exact tragedy has occurred. Both girls could be described as your Katie has been, EXACTLY like her. Katie Hodges (would be a sophomore now) died this past summer in a car accident while coming home from a friend's cottage and Jillian Keefer (was a senior) died 3 years ago while driving, when I was a freshman. They were amazing girls, both known for their smiles, and loved by pretty much everyone. It's hard to imagine that beautiful blondes like all three of these girls could ever die in such a horrible way and so young. This site is amazing and it just shows how many people obviously loved Katie Aylor. To all the friends and family, I'm so sorry, it happened two years ago but I'm sure everyone who did know her will never stop loving her or forget her.
Katie, looking back at some of the memories your close friends and family share on here make me so sad to think of how much they love and miss you every day. Your Aunt Kaye has made me cry the most because she mentions seeing your friends at the mall after your death. It reminds me of talking to the mother of my friend that we recently lost to a drunk driving accident. This has shaken up our whole high school Katie. Sometimes it takes tragedies like these to make people realize how much life is worth. It brings me healing to know that you knew all along.
Katie, I cant stop viewing this awesome site you have. I probably view it about 2 times a day since I found it last Friday on Feb 25 2005.. I just can get over your beautiful pictures. They are gorgeous.. I keep you in my prayers baby doll along with my girl Dorothy.. She was also into cheerleading a lot and I'm sure the both of you are good friends watching over us down here. I talk to you and Dor from now on.. They actually played this Sarah McLachlin song at her funeral. You're a friend now and it's like ever since I found this site, I'm dealing with what I went through when Dorothy passed. Even though I never knew you, I sure do feel close to you. It's like I have to look at your picture at least 1 time a day and every time I hear "I Believe" by Diamond Rio from now on I picture you and It just messes me up. Just help me out and let me be strong and get through it how Dor got me through hers. Well I just wanna give ya a big hug and I'll meet you some day. Tell Dorothy I love her and every body misses her along with you .. Take care Katie... Brian from Md.
Katie...it's so amazing to see how you still touch so many hearts. I've been on your site several times now, at least one time a day but mostly more often. Your pictures, the art, the poems, the music...everything is so beautiful. I have been thinking lots about you lately. Don't know why. It's like you're with me wherever I go... I'll keep you in my prayers, sweetie! Please, give my sweetie who's there with you, a tender hug...and a tender hug for you too, of course! Please tell her I miss her so much...and although I've never had the chance to meet you, I am missing you too...baby doll... Please, touch more and more hearts every day, girls... You'll be in my heart... xxx Joost
Kta, just wanted to let you know that I was thinking of you...& do everyday! You continue to impact my life and the lives of so many people. I see so much of you in Nikki it's amazing! I know how much she loves you and misses you...we all do. But, I know that you and Brandi are making it a party up there! THINKING OF YOU GIRLS ALWAYS! <3<3<3
Hi gorgeous!! I've been thinking about you soo much lately. I cut out a shape of an angel the other day at mom's school & then I put your picture on it. Its on the end of Kellen's bed. Just a reminder to Kellen & I that we have the greatest Angel ever looking out for him. I miss you so much Kt. All my love. <3 DaNi
Hey Katie... today has basically been a bad day ... just not happy much this week. But when ever I get on all my lil angels sites I get all fuzzy feeling inside. lol I get all happy again knowing you love us all, miss us like we miss you, and I know most of all you are watching my every move right now. I'm glad I have some one looking in on me helping me when I need it most. Thanx Katie. *Jillian Elizabeth Bennett*
I was shown this website by a friend. And was touched by it the moment it came on the screen. I'm deeply saddened that I never got the chance to know Katie. The reason my friend showed the website to me and to everyone else she showed was to I think, let everyone know that it's going to be okay. Things like this show how much one can honestly touch lives and how much they continue to live through their family, friends, and even people who didn't get the chance to ever even meet them. When I was a freshman 3 close friends of mine were involved in a car accident. 2 of them were hurt but recovered quickly and are here with us today. The last person was in a comma for an extensive amount of time, he came out of the coma being mentally handicapped. He's here with us today, but not the way he was before. Another friend died this past summer in a car accident. She was described exactly the way you describe your Katie. Loosing someone whom you love is never easy. It's hard to comprehend how one's life could so suddenly end, when they seem to have so much living to do. But truth is, that their lives have not really ended but simply begun with God. This website has done so much for me. Even though I did not know Katie. I visit it almost everyday. It touches me in many ways, and I learn new things every time I look at it. Katie was a beautiful girl and seemed extremely genuine and had an amazing personality. I'm so glad to see that people still talk to Katie everyday, because I know that both Katie's parents and friends listen to everyone every time. Remember that they continue to live through everyone of the lives they have touched and will continue to live on through people forever. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of Katie and Brandi. They will forever be in my prayers. Keep smiling girls, show them what your all about! I hope to see you all someday and finally get the chance to meet the girl that has touched people from around the world. HEADSTRONG. KPH and KTA forever a million!
I forgot to mention that if any of Katie's friends or family would want to talk. I would love to talk and hear more and more about her. IM me at KTAnne46 or email me at KtAnne46@buckeye-express.com. I'd love to hear from any of you.
I didn't know her but I often look at the site I think its so sad that she died like that.
I'm sitting here crying I didn't know Katie from anything but the internet but the way you all talk about her I wish I could of known her for real she seems like a great person
I never knew Katie but she sounds a lovely person to be with and I am sorry I never had the chance to meet her.
Some days ago, I wrote down the lyrics of a song which make me think of Katie every time I hear it. It was in Dutch and I have tried to translate it. I've tried to do it the best I can. (luchtbel) SOAR WITH THE WIND I still remember everything of that day but I am not sure if it even was just one day because this story seemed to happen outside time. I still remember your smile not even sure if it was a smile because it faded from your face. I lost you and sometimes it feels like you have never existed. Was this all just a dream? You were then, you are now you soar with the wind. You were there and you are here and the wind takes you away but keeps you alive forever. I still see the empty glass not even sure if it was just one glass because some memories seem to fade away slowly. I remember you made a joke but now I'm not even sure if it really was a joke because your colorful smile turned into grey. I have lost you you are gone now and sometimes it feels like I have never existed. Am I still living a dream? I was then, I am now, I am soaring with the wind. I was there and I am here and the wind takes me away but keeps us alive forever. Everything then is everything now, it still soars with the wind. Everything there is everything here and the wind takes it away but keeps the precious memories alive. Forever keeps us alive, keeps you alive....... Katie, thank you so much for touching my heart every day, you're truly an angel and I feel you are with me even though you haven't met me before... please, stay with your loving and caring parents, brother, family and friends forever... take care up there, hugs to you and Brandi, xxx joost
Hey Katie, it's Brian again.. Just stop buy to visit ya. I knew you were with me the other day (even though we never met) but reason I said I knew you were with me is because when I walked out to go pull a car into the shop at work the only 3 letters on the license plate read KTA. :) I thought that was awesome. I knew right then you were, and that's when I told you I knew you were there looking down, you and Dorothy. I will never for get about you baby doll I love you.. Well Katie take care baby girl and I'll talk to ya later.. Katie and Dor protect us all. Love Brian in MD.
After reading this quote the other day....Katie was the first thing that popped into my head, so I thought I'd share it... "A shooting Star, amongst ordinary stars, is a brilliant thing, it passes through quickly, but while it's here, it just lights up the whole sky, its the most beautiful thing you'd ever want to see, so beautiful that the other stars, stop, and watch. You almost never see them, because they are very rare, but I saw one..." in Katie Marie Aylor. Clearly KtA isn't done "lighting up the sky" even though she's no longer physically here. I believe this analogy of Katie is very fitting....she is beautiful & really lit up everything & everyone she touched. She will always live on...& always be remembered, love u KatieBug -AB
Take Care KTA! You've really made a difference. " I probably wouldn't be this way. It probably wouldn't hurt so bad. I never picture every minute, without you in it. Oh you left so fast! Sometimes I see you standing there. Sometimes I feel an angel's touch. Sometimes I feel that I'm so lucky to have had the chance to love this much! God give me a moment's grace, cause if I'd never seen your face I probably wouldn't be this way." ~ Leann Rimes, off the This Woman CD 2005
I came across this site when I was browsing for something on google. I can't even remember what it was because this site is so touching. I know so many people that died in car accidents and I was almost killed myself and all I have to say is the good die young for some reason. Your daughter was a beautiful girl and I'm sorry for what happened to her.
Hi Katie...after I have read all the memories of your family and friends here, I realized that it's kind of weird that I have the feeling that I know you so well, although we've never met. You have touched so many hearts in your life and there are so many people that still love you and miss you so dearly. I have been thinking about you a lot lately. Every time I visit your beautiful site, see your pictures and all the others things on here, it's clear that you have been an angel for all of your life. I admire you, miss you and am so glad that you are a part of my life now, although I don't have any wonderful memories like most of the people have written here. I am looking forward to meeting you up there in heaven some day. Please stay with me but most of all, stay very close to your wonderful parents, brother and friends...hold on their hearts forever! They will be in my prayers and thoughts always! Love you, miss you...take care up there Katie & Brandi and please say hi to my love who's there with you guys! I'm sure you're having a good time there together! xxx Joost
To the Aylor Family, words couldn't even express how I feel about what has happened to Katie! It's definitely amazing how God could take such a beautiful, young girl like her. He must have really been calling for a good angel, to come be up there with him! It seems as if she has touched many lives & hearts. All my thoughts and prayers go out to all of the family and friends! Katie, girl, watch down on us ... until we meet in heaven ... *R.I.P*
Hey, my names Tiffany. I am 16 and I live in Washington. I can't remember how I found this website because its been a while. I've been coming here for the past 2 1/2 years. I've cried many times because its so upsetting knowing that someone so innocent, kind, beautiful, and very much loved by family and friends was taken by one mistake. But I know that she has prevented a lot that might have occurred. I'm not yet driving but I know now that just one mistake could not only take my life but also another's....well I cant even imagine how hard it must be for Katie's family and friends especially since I haven't yet lost a close friend or relative but I know it must be really hard. Just know she's watching you always and forever no matter what and we are all very lucky to have such a beautiful Angel well actually TWO beautiful angels watching us and protecting us. I only wish I was able to meet both of them. They seemed so fun and loving. Good luck to all her family and friends. I wish you the best. You are all very luck to have known Katie and Brandi. R.I.P. KATIE Marie Aylor & Brandi Cook!
Just thinking about you. I really miss ya and wanted to let you know. I love you little one! Love always, Haley
Though I do not know you, I was just surfing the net when I saw your website. May your gentle soul rest in peace.
Hi KT, I was just thinking about you...again. I have been on this site for a long time, reading all the memories, been through all the pictures, the art, the poems...about everything. This is such a wonderful and beautiful memorial...just wanted to tell you this... please, stay close to everyone who still loves you so much and still misses your smile and your caring, loving personality... the Aylor family, your friends and you are in my prayers always... xxx Joost
Hmm .. what can I say about Katie? She was the greatest person! There is just too much to say about her, and I barely even knew her. You will always be in our hearts Katie! We all miss you!! And we all know that you are with us and watching over us and always will be! We love you =0)
I don't know Katie but from reading all of these memories and looking at pictures and everything I can tell that she was a wonderful person! I knew someone who was in a very tragic accident from Newburyport, Massachusetts. She sounds just like Katie. Sweet, kind, gentle, happy, nice to everyone! It was very sad but I am sure that they will somehow find each other in heaven and be watching over everyone together, along with Brandi Cook. I hope that you all RIP and know that whether people knew you or not, you will be in everyone's heart! Your family and friends miss you and even though I didn't even know you I already miss you.
Thinking about you a lot again today. Miss you so much. I love you! -Haley
Hi I was just looking at your website. I don't even know who you guys are, but I know how you guys are feeling. Last year, April 20th 2004 at 8:09 on my birthday my brother was going out to get me a birthday gift and a bus hit his car. I found out around 9:30 that him and his 3 friends had all died. That was a really sad day and every year on my birthday I miss him so much and I always think to myself that it was all my fault but I see him and his friends every night in my dreams .. I'm really sorry for you guys....
THINKING OF YOU, ALWAYS, PRECIOUS ANGEL! LOVE, DANI
I just randomly visited this website, first thing I saw was the picture of Katie, and I thought what a beautiful happy girl. But when I read the text my mood dropped immediately. I turned off the music and started to read. I feel very sorry for you, I can never imagine how it is like. I hope you meet her again some day! Jonas, Norway.
It's been forever since I've been on here...it's almost too hard. It's been a bad day, a bad night, a bad week, a bad month, and a bad year...it's just hard without you here. Miss You...Jenny
Just thinking of you and Brandi. Miss & Love you beautiful angels!<3<3
I visited by chance this side. When I started to read the text I was speechless. I got very sad. I feel very sorry for you. I hope you will meet Katie again. Rest in peace. Lars, Germany
Katie....if you could, watch over Ashley Hudgel, especially, as you watch over us all. As I'm sure you know, yesterday at 6:20 am, a car coming the opposite direction went left of center, hitting Sonya Hudgel, Ashley's mother, head on, while she was on her way to work. The man driving his car fell asleep. There was nothing Sonya could have done to avoid being hit, and because of this, they both paid for his mistake with their lives. Please let her feel your presence as she goes through the pain of this horrendous tragedy only two years after losing her best friend, Natasha Fredrick, to an illness. Help her hold up her head up Kta...if any angel can do this, I know you can....love & miss you lil girl<3
She was pretty and a good daughter.
I feel with you all. "Halt Dich an Deiner Liebe fest" Thomas
I found this by chance. It made me sad as soon as I started to read the memories. I love the song that plays "I will remember you" by Sara Mclaughin. When my friend Frankie passed away the same way I would listen to this song...she is beautiful and seems like an awesome person...you'll see her again someday....my prayers are with you ...E'lyse Michigan 03/18/05
I just happened to come across this website on the internet. I feel deeply sorry for you. I come on here quite a lot now. My auntie died in a car accident when she was 17 and I never got to know her as I never got the chance to know Katie. This website has touched me and made me cry with happy thoughts of Katie's life here. England, 16, Laura
It is somewhat puzzling to fathom God's will when dealing with a life He gives and suddenly seeing that life being snuffed out from a vessel He devised on His own image and liking. The consolation, however, is the belief that Katie, the flower, is back to the garden where roses do not die and colors do not fade. She is with the angels singing to all of us and mobilizing our emotions to render some moments and write to the family that loved her most. Katie is precious to her family and precious to all those who knew her. Keep her memory alive by reminding our selves that God is always good in spite of our lack of understanding of how He deals with His own creation. From Jerusalem and on this very Holy Day, Palm Sunday we remember Katie in our prayers and we pray for her family. Samuel Vosgueritchian
I'm one of the many people who have stumbled upon this website through Google.. and may I say that I have never ever seen so much love for someone on one single website.. I admire all your courage to bare all you heart and souls into this page. My closest Aunt died in a car crash I loved her very much and she was greatly loved by all my family as Katie is to you all. August 27 2002 will always be remembered by me as we welcomed an addition to our family and was also a belated birthday present. .;*'Thousands of candles can be lightened from one single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened.

Katie I come here almost everyday, as you probably know. Most the time I can just sit here and look at this site and think of you and keep your memory fresh in my mind and always think about those few good times that we had and the many times you were there for me. I don't cry most the time, though my heart still aches as it always has.. but today is different. I am crying my eyes out and I really miss you. I will live the rest of my life asking trying to understand why this happened. Nothing seems to be a reasonable answer. Although they say everything happens for a reason, I still have so many questions. I love you, Angel, thinking of you all the time. *Dani*
All of Katie's family and friends, I would just like to let u guys know that I pray for you guys every night and I cry every time I read all her poems. They just remind me of how I should take care of my family and friends because their day to go may be tomorrow or know so I would like to give Katie's family and friends a special thanks for making me recognize that I need to love every second because my family and friends will not be around forever ! THANK YOU, Aylor family and friends
Katie's family and friends, I'm a 14 year old boy who found this site as a pop-up, but this pop-up was more meaningful than any other pop-up. This site taught me I need to appreciate family more than ever because in the blink of an eye it could fall away just like that. I just want to say that your daughter is really beautiful and I know God is helping her every step of the way and hopefully y'all realize she's in a greater place now. Thanks for reading my praise. Even though I don't know y'all in person i still love y'all like brothers and sisters. -Jacob-
I miss Katie so much she was like a sister to me. We had so many good times and I hope she is right this very moment. I LOVE YOU SOO MUCH KATIE!
Hey! I didn't know Katie, I just stumbled across this website when searching at google, and I started reading and I just wanted you all to know, what a great person she seems to be! I was reading the memories and broke down in tears! I wish I would of known her, she seems so awesome. I just want everyone to know that I'm praying for you all and you will see her one day!!!! * It will all be okay one day, though I know its something you will always keep in your mind & heart, b/c I lost my big brother 4 years ago, and it just kills me when I think about it!! I'm so sorry this happened and I just wanted to let you know that. By the way she is very pretty, she honestly should of been a model!!!!* Thanks for your time, Keisha Haney
Krystal Morgan: I don't even know you and I miss you!!
Hi Aylor family, I'm Carly, my sisters friend Romeo told her to come on this site because he said he was close to Katie and I feel sorrow when I come to this site! I feel the deepest sympathy for the whole family and all of her friends. When I came onto this site I felt like I knew Katie. I mean just from her pics. She looks like she'd act a lot like me. Crazy, fun, always making people laugh, just walking into a room and lighting it up with her smile. She gorgeous and her mother is too! You both look so much alike. Just remember God, Jesus, and I love you. If u ever get the chance to will u email me at enkababe15@yahoo.com? God bless you... -My deepest sympathy and best wishes- STAY STRONG AYLORS!! love Carly Brewer
Hey Katie, it has been awhile since I left some words here...but I think of you every day! I miss you...thank you for lighting up your light in my heart! In my prayers and thoughts always... xxx Joost
Hello I know you don't know me but my name is Shadow Day of Summerville GA. I'm 13 and I read this about Katie Aylor and got very sad. I thought I would write and say I'm very sorry about what happened. Although we all know she is in HEAVEN watching over us all. She was a very PRETTY girl and I will keep her in my prayers.
I personally didn't know Katie, but I do know that she meant a lot to my cousins. From everything that I have read about her she seems like and amazing person. I still remember that first time I heard about it and I couldn't believe it. It is so weird how fast your life can be changed forever. I found this site through Jarod's. I just don't understand why all these lives are being taken. But I do know that the "guy in charge" has a plan for us all. She is very pretty and it looked like she had a lot going for her. I have only been to this site once before but I didn't want to write anything because I really didn't know what to say. She seems like she would have been a really cool person to hang out with. Seeing her on this site really put a ton of things that are going on my life into perspective. This site makes me a hundred times more grateful for my family. You never know what is going to happen from one day to the next, or when you are going to lose someone who you are close to as I have learned many times in the past couple of years. After all of this happened my dad asked if I heard about it and I said I did. He told me that when I was younger I used to hang out with Brandi. I vaguely remember her but my dad said that we used to always be together. I am praying for both families and you were both very lucky to have daughters like you do. GOD BLESS
I never knew Katie nor met her, but what I see from this site is that she must had been quite a special person. I just cried again because I feel its so sad that such a young and beautiful angel passed away. But she is in a better place now and I'm sure all her relatives and friends will see her again, her sparkling beauty. Rest In Peace to Katie Aylor -Rob
Hey my name is Brittany and I'm from New Jersey. I didn't know Katie or Brandi but they seem like to wonderful girls. I kinda know how u feel. On March 3rd 2005, my birthday, my sister got in a car accident. She hit the back of a big truck and went underneath...she was hurt pretty bad and some of her friends were hurt bad to but I'm so happy she is ok. And I know how upset I was when she got hurt but for u guys it's different. I feel really sad for what happened and I'm never going to forget them even though I never knew them but by this website. They will always be in my heart. RIP u beautiful angels....xoBrittanyxo *email* preciousbritt666@yahoo.com
I never got to meet this wonderful and beautiful girl. Her life seems full of happiness and girl u have a lot of friends! It just so happens I was downloading "dilemma" by Neelly and Keelly Rowland that I came across this site. It touched my heart to see that such a wonderful girl's life got taken away at such a young age. All of the wonderful things she did and some of the pictures made me laugh of where she is dressed up. I live in England but you don't get very many girls here who could touch as many peoples hearts as what Katie has! Girl u are so precious and it is right what people are saying your smile can make a room glow because you sure made mine glow! I hope you rest in peace and show everyone up there how full of life you are and even though we never have met maybe when it is my time we can and you can show me how to have a great time just like you did down here. Keep smiling babe! Love always Jodie Bainbridge (17 years old) xxxxxxxxxx
Hey Katie, I am sitting at your house in the computer room that has now become the Lady Bug room thinking about you! Dan and I both miss you! Wish you could be with us this Easter. Love you. Jess
Hey! Wow it is amazing what you come across on the internet. I don't know this girl but reading about what happened and all the messages is making me cry. How sad! I wish the best for her family. I truly feel for you I'm sorry this has happened. She seems so amazing! goodbye all my love, Nikita
Happy Easter My little Katie bug and sis. I will never let your memory pass. I love and can't waited to see you someday. From James Hibbard
Hi ya! I never obviously knew Katie coz I live in England but Katie looked like a beautiful stunning girl and I cannot believe God would take such a person off the planet. I was really touched by this story and all my thoughts are with the Aylors. I am 15 years old and after reading the site it made me appreciate all my family and friends and I could not bare to loose any of them. It's true what they say .... only the good die young...Katie you'll never be forgotten. Rest in peace.. Jess xxx
Hi I'm Darlene from Philippines, I'm 19 years old. Well I don't know Katie but while I'm reading this web site I feel the all the memories of Katie! I know Katie is always watching us...I enjoy reading this site... and I wish Brandi Cook have also a web site like this...thank you...
It's odd, isn't it? I, like many others, found this page from random surfing. It strikes a soft spot in my soul. I am the same age as Katie and I realized while looking at this site that it would have been amazing to have grown up with such a wonderful friend like Katie. I was thinking, "wow, she was so young." Then I looked at the date of her death, and realized I was merely the same age as she was. It's weird how someone you have never met or had the chance to even talk to online or by phone can touch your life in some wonderful way. Aylor family, you've done nothing but a wonderful job at keeping Katie alive. I mean look! This website has been up for nearly three years and still receiving recent posts. She'll be in my mind for a while now. She was not only a beautiful person but she had friends and family that loved her dearly. And not to mention, an attitude similar to mine :) I lost a friend in a car wreck my freshman year. She reminds me a lot of Katie because she was the type of person who made no enemies, just friends. She was always smiling and everyone loved her. It was a tragic event. Only, it happened before school and the whole rest of the day was horrible on the student body. I think about what Katie would be doing right now. I really wish I would have known her. I bet she'd be in her college dorm watching movies with a bunch of her girlfriends and laughing whilst eating ice cream and talking about the cute boys on campus. I know that's what my friends and I still do. It's fun being a girl, and I'm sure Katie showed this as well. She'll be in my heart and your entire family will be in my prayers and heart as well. Thanks for the inspiration --Ellen Blanton, Kentucky. (email address is elle1016@hotmail.com feel free to email me.)
Hello, my condolences go to the family and Katie will be in my thoughts. R.I.P. Andres
Just checking up again I saw this sight like a year ago and I think of Katie often, how such a worthy person she was of life... its sad to lose people like that, but she's in a better place and she's touched obviously more people in this world then one would think is possible.. I mean look I've been looking at this sight for a year!!! BEST WISHES and lots of love..... beautiful angels *....Brandi and Katie...*. fly on...
Hey Katie, Just came here again to see how you were doing. We all miss you, and I actually had a dream about you and Haley the other night, it was weird. But, I'm constantly thinking about you and missing you. Love you KTA. -BJC
Hi Katie, just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you now and every day...you've changed my life... big hug to you, Brandi and my sweetness, who's up there with you guys...sure you're having lots of fun together...=0) xxx Joost
I just stumbled on this site by mistake. I cannot stop the tears from flowing. God bless all of her family and friends!
Miss you lots KTA...I think about you often. Be glad that you are in a better place.-BA
I didn't have the privilege to know Katie for I stumbled upon this site accidentally. I've never really lost someone due to a tragic death, so I can't say I know how the parents feel. But what I can say is, after reading and admiring all the supporting memories her family and friends have posted, I can truly say Katie was a giver and not a taker. She is a gorgeous girl inside and out. I say IS and not WAS because we all know that till this very day, she is very much alive, watching over her friends and her loving family and that will never change. To the parents of Katie, remember that all things in life occur for a reason beyond our understanding. Apparently someone from up above believed that Katie was to good to here with us so they called for her to be in a much better and peaceful place. Be proud that you raised such a gorgeous and loving girl. Today's society needs more people like Katie. With Katie in mind, I sign off and say, "see you later".....

I know that Katie Aylor was a great girl. I never met her but what I have seen from this site I just know that she made many peoples lives VERY happy! She was the type of girl that EVERY girl would want to look an be like.
Hi Katie. as you know I've been on this site all day today and all last night. Almost non-stop. I feel like I have known you my whole life I just didn't know it. I lost my brother due to an automobile accident too. But in his case, alcohol was involved. I'm glad it wasn't in your case. You were and still are a beautiful girl. If I were God and could pick an angel to have sitting on the throne with me, I wouldn't pick anyone but you girl. I believe I was brought to this site by you baby. You have told me to write a book about your life, your friends, family and to help people be aware of the dangers that driving erratically can cause. I know this website is probably enough, but I don't think it is. I want everyone to know who you were, and who Brandi was too. What you left behind, what you could have looked forward to. The whole town of Lebanon has practically dedicated the town to you and Brandi, and I couldn't think of a better going away present than that. That is a gift only an angel would receive. And you girl are truly an angel that is watching over all of us right this very moment and forever will be. So if I could ask a favor of your family and friends, and Dylan if you see this message to, I want your guy's help on this book. Any information, photos, letters, anything that you guys think will help me in writing this book I would really appreciate it. Oh Mr. & Mrs. Aylor, it would be wrong of me not to ask your permission to write this book, so I am asking you now, can I have your permission to write this book. Family & friends please get in reach with me at hottstud154@yahoo.com or call at 217-971-9976 and I will reimburse any phone charges you may have. If you have any pictures that you can copy for me and send them to me I would appreciate it. Drew Johnson 12300 Alexander Road Auburn, Il 62615. I will also reimburse any shipping charges. Katie and Brandi, after reading through everything on here I can say that you guys will forever hold a place in my heart and I can feel you looking down on me as I start this new journey writing this book to memorize you two even more that what you have been. And the proceeds from it, will go towards your Scholarship fund. To the both of you, keep it real in heaven and please save a spot next to you guys for me, cuz when I get up there I'm gonna read you my book. Peace out Katie and remember we will never forget you girl. Good night guys.
Always thinking about you chicken nugget :) <3 Kristen
Katie, thank you for visiting me last night. I miss you a lot. I hope you know how special you were/are to me. You were such a great friend to me, no matter how many times I screwed up. Our friendship will always meant a lot to me. I know I probably didn't tell you that before, & I should have. I love you ANGEL. *DANI*
Hi, this is Joy Hickman again from Cambridge Ohio and on 4-6-05 we buried my great-gramma and tomorrow we are burying my best friend's 14 year old son Kodie Hughes. Katie and Brandi I never got the chance to meet you or anything but would you please keep Kodie safe and let him know that he will be greatly missed here. I know that my gramma is with my grandpap, but Kodie is so young and I know that you and God will take care of him. When he gets there ask him if he wants to do some karate. He is good and a sweet boy. Watch over his mom Michelle and his sister Sarah. Tonight his mom was in such a distraught shape that I can imagine what your mom was like having to say goodbye to her baby girl. I visit your site daily and this is helping me to cope with the loss of 2 special people in my life. The Aylor an Cook families are in my heart and prayers. If anyone one wish to talk you can email me at baby_joy_04@yahoo.com or message me at preciousprincess4u2enjoy@yahoo.com. Lots of love to u angels. Love Always Joy Hickman Cambridge Ohio 25 years old
I didn't get to meet Katie in person, but I have been given the gift and pleasure of getting to know Katie through 4 people who love her the most (Jeff, Karol, Joel, and Dylan). I was introduced to Katie in June 2004. Since visiting the website for the first time months ago, I can't tear myself away. It is hard to understand why certain things happen, but I know for sure that some higher being brought me into this life and brought me close to the people who love her. Sometimes it is extremely hard to think about and to fathom the reason why this had to happen, only God can answer that. But I remain strong because I know it helps and it is what I am supposed to do. I do understand clearly why I was brought here and brought to certain people in her life. It is amazing the impact someone can have on your life without having met them in person or even knew they existed in this life. Katie truly is an angel and has guided me on the way to my RIGHT path. As I know I can never and will never replace Katie, I will do everything I can to make those around me happy because I know that is what she would have wanted for me to do. Jeff, Karol, and Joel-it was an absolute pleasure meeting you three. Thank you for opening your hearts to me. I look forward to being able to spend more time with you all. You are forever in my heart and in my prayers! Lara Greczyn, Kansas. lara_greczyn@yahoo.com
I don't know you but when I look at this web site it touches my heart. I feel your pain it is really hard to loose someone close to you. I am so sorry. I will keep you in my prayers like I always do. LOVE ND PEACE!!!! If you ever need to talk you can e mail me at sbgl4l_10@yahoo.com THANK YOU!!1 ~*~*~*CHYANNI~*~*~*
Hey, Katie babe! How are you I haven't been on this site since August 30th because it is just to hard to keep going back and seeing your photos. You are beautiful and still I wish I looked as good as you do. Katie I do miss you and I have you on my thoughts 24/7. Still its never going away and I could never forget you! You're my Katie babe, Always and forever :) mauhs to you Katie xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo ~!* beccalynner*!~
Katie you must be on a lot of peoples minds today! It is so great that people do care love you Katie babe :) xoxo beccalynner :)
I never knew Katie personally, but I feel after reading this and looking at all the pictures that she truly was an angel. I believe that she is watching over everyone that cares about her now. I think that this site was a great idea to remember her by, the good times she had. She's in a good place now, a perfect angel everywhere. Thank you Katie Aylor for looking over me, my family, and friends for me not having to go through such a tragic accident such as the one you have. We all miss you and love you very deeply. Thank you so much for inspiring me to live life to the fullest because we never know when we're going to be with you. Save me a spot! **I miss my friend**
I miss you :( Love you 4-ever and always! Your true love
Sometimes I just like to browse through the pictures here and remember. I guess I've never really paid attention to the music but today I as looking at one of the picture pages, it was playing Faith Hill's "Wild One". It automatically made me laugh! How perfect! I'm not sure who picked that song but wow! How perfectly it fit KTA....A wild one with an angel's face. Amazing. Miss KTA, I miss your smiling face! I was in speech class the other day and a girl was giving a speech on car accidents...it made me think of you and cry....my class probably thought I was a lil crazy. But it was just one of those moments where you can't help it. Miss you darlin...Love Monica~
Hey Katie. We're all going through some tough times with all that is happening here in Myrtle Beach. One of my close friend's mothers was killed and she was hurt very much in the process. Tonight at church I was just praying to God to help her and I thought of you. She's strong like you were Katie...and I know that she'll get through all that is lying before us. And to everybody else, I just ask you to PLEASE keep us in mind... visit google and type in "steven stanko" for more information. I know this site isn't for prayer requests but I know how God works in mysterious ways and I talked to Katie in a dream the other night and she said that everything will be fine. Thank you all so much. Katie Bug...R.I.P
kta- I have been going through a really tough time lately but I know you are watching me and guiding me through it all. Please continue to help me through these difficult times. Also, I lost a friend in a car accident over Christmas. I miss you both so much but know that my beautiful angels are watching over me...
Katie...I am thinking of you more then ever these days...you are a true angel...touched my heart! Please, stay close to those who still need you and love you so much...You're in my thoughts, prayers and heart forever...xxx Joost
Hello my name is Tiffany Taylor I am from North Carolina. I just came across this web site and it is a VERY big wake up call to me! I am almost 15 and I will be driving soon. I am very worried. When I was 12 years old my very best friend of 11 years got killed in a car crash with some friends while I was in Florida. When I got back I was to late. I never got to see Meagan again. I miss her very much! More then anything in the world. So when I seen this site I did not take my eyes off of it for a VERY long time. I cried almost the whole time and I cry as I sit here and write to you. When I look at Katie I think about all the things that she has done for MANY people. I wish that I could have been one of them but not everyone gets to meet or be friends with one of the best people in the world!!!! I really wish that I could have got to be friends b/c in MANY ways we are VERY much a like. I know that when I pass I will get to do the thing that I want to do most and that is to see Katie!!!! I pray 4 the friends and family b/c I know what it is like to lose some one VERY close to you. I really hope that anyone in the Aylor family or any of Katie's friends will e mail me my e-mail address id chick144@wapda.com Thank you and I love you all Katie the Aylor family an friends xxxxoooo
Katie, It's been over 2 1/2 years since we last saw your beautiful face. As I sit here on this site for almost an hour, I'm still asking questions and my heart aches no less then it did 2 1/2 years ago. I see you a lot in my dreams, but that isn't good enough. I miss you Kate. I miss you so much. Your family is amazing and I don't know how they do it without you. I love you & I pray for you & your family & your friends all the time. Until we meet again.
Hello again Katie and your family. You are truly an angel. Yesterday I found out I am gonna be a mommy for the first time. I would be honored if your family would allow me to name her if have a girl Katie Marie like the beautiful angel you are. Thanks again Joy Hickman Cambridge Ohio baby_joy_04@yahoo.com

Hi ,Hello, my name is Monica. I am from Spain. I visited this page I me to supposition an enormous pain for her(it). Before I was thinking without valuing the things. But now me in view of account that alone there is an end and this end it is the pain and to suffer. When I returned to USA (iowa) I meet the one that was my boyfriend now I am alone:normaly he was happening of me,and even I do not deal, have never wanted it like and even now. Even I like him with madness, every day I think about him. I have cried very much alone but Katie me to I throw me enfronte and that there are worse things. The music and her image is the angel that the protected. It(he,she) is often of that I have thought that serious better not to exist, but the life is the nicest thing. I expect to be able to do everything what Katie does not exist begin in her memory and principally as my gift with very much fondness. I can't meet she but her image feel sad.I can't meet her But her image makes me feel as my better friend. Always I will remember you, and guide towards the good thing. Monica

Katie... missing you ... thinking of your family and how great Mrs. Aylor was to me after my brother passed away ... I know that your family thinks of you constantly and as you can see so do I .. . I have takin the time to recognize my angels after Multimedia class (Whoohoo) and I thought I would take the time to look at your site considering you popped into my mind today ! Love you Katie, xoxo *Jillian* (Jarod's sister)
Hey Bug! Love and miss ya...Meg
I don't know Katie, I just came across this site. I want to pray and give out my heart to Katie and her friends and family. She is a VERY beautiful young lady. She will always be the same , you will never see her , but she will be your guardian angel 24/7. Always say goodnight, and never bye. God Bless all of You!!!
I came across this webpage like many other people and instantly felt a connection to Katie! Although I never had the privilege of meeting Katie, I feel like I know her and am greatly saddened by her death. Although Katie's life on earth was short she made an impact on everyone that will last for all of eternity. To all of her friends and family my heart goes out to each and everyone of you. I can't even begin to imagine how hard this is on each of you. But I guess we can find comfort in knowing that God has a plan for her and for us all. Keep on watching over everyone Katie. I can't wait to see you in heaven one day! Lots of love hun! <---->Ontario,Canada
Katie...Just thinking of you today so I'd thought I'd come and say "hi"...love and miss you so much Whitney
Katie. I miss you. I wish you were here. I have so much to talk to you about. Cant wait to see you again. I LOVE YOU ANGEL! *Dani
Katie! I thought about you today when I saw a little blond girl wearing a bandana like you used to. I miss you, and can't wait till I get to see you again. Lots of love ~~~~Amber~~~~

Just wanted to say hello little kt-bug...miss and love you more then ever. xoxo lucy-bug
It hurts Katie. I just miss you. Your family amazes me, just like you did. Can't wait for that day when we will meet again. Love you so much.
Hi it's Laci. I didn't know Katie but I think about her almost all the time. If I had the chance to meet her I would've loved her. By looking at her pics and memories we look a lot alike and with all the memories we act alike too. It's kind of weird how people come and people go but some people stay forever. I think Katie was truly one of the people that stayed, even if you never knew her. She could touch your heart through her pictures, through her smile. She was an amazing girl and so many people miss her and she's loved by so many. I mean I see Katie as one of my guardian angels. I mean I know I wasn't at her funeral or anything but I am here now and she's on my mind nonstop. I told my friends about you and they were amazed... when I come to this site I'm overwhelmed with this feeling that someone is there with me. I lose my breath and get a knot in my throat. Maybe it's cause I wanna cry too. I'm not sure but I do know one thing, I love you Katie Marie Aylor... Good luck Aylors! RIP KTA and BSC -(Laci)- email me sometime enkababe15@yahoo.com
hey guys its Laci again. iIjust wanted to say that I've been thinking about Katie almost all day and I just wanna say good luck and god bless you all. Stay strong! ((I can't wait to meet you Katie!)) love always-- Laci Morgan
Love you Katie... in my heart forever! xxx Joost
Hey Baby Kate....your beautiful face just popped into my head this morning & I wanted you to know:) Love & miss you always gorgeous<3<3 P.S. you too Brandi Sue
I FOUND THIS PAGE BY ACCIDENT AND I MUST SAY THAT WHEN IT LOADED I THOUGHT WHAT A PRETTY GIRL. THEN I LOOKED THROUGH THE WEBSITE AND I MUST SAY THAT THE WEBSITE TOUCHES YOU INSIDE AND ALL I COULD DO WAS CRY.
Although I didn’t even know Katie I think that she is a very nice girl and I can’t believe that God took her away. I think of it like he wanted a new angel and she was the kindest he could choose. Whilst looking at this website I couldn’t stop myself from crying whilst reading some of the memories that show she was kind and friendly all the time and she could make you smile without saying anything. She will always be missed. My heart is with you always! From Luke from England
Hey y'all, Katie baby girl in times of strife I think of you and realize there is nothing in the world we can't tackle. You were amazing and I'll always love you. I know your are looking down on me right now and I hope to see you one day. Love u xxx Grivas
Hey Katie, just stopping in to see ya... everyone misses you sweet heart . Take care babe, Brian in Maryland.
I have been coming to this page for probably a year now. And there's a reason for everything. On Mother's Day...May 8th. My cousin, her husband, and her little boy were in an accident on I-4 in Deland, FL. Someone cut them off and both suv's went into oncoming traffic. A moving truck hit them both and a minivan also hit my cousins. My cousins' husband Steve and the other man in the SUV were ejected and died instantly. My little cousin Ian died on Tuesday. And my cousin Beth is still in critical condition. She doesn't even know that her husband and son have been taken from her yet. I think from looking over this site so many times, I learned how important it is to celebrate our loved ones lives. There is nothing I can do to bring either of them back. And by the Grace of God I hope my cousin Beth will be able to go on. If you think of it, please pray for her. Today is Steve and Ian's memorial service. Ian was going to graduate from preschool a week from today. Sometimes I don't think it's fair. He was only 5 years old. It makes me think..why could God not have taken me instead. I have lived long enough.
Kate, babygirl. I'm so glad you are in a place where you feel NO pain. There is so much hurt in this world we live in. Including missing your beautiful face. Although I do miss you everyday. I'm glad you are constantly happy where you are. This world is full of pain and suffering everyday. Watch over us sweetness. I miss you, now & FOREVER. Until we meet again, all my love.
Hey this is Tiffany I have only written in here once before. But I have been coming to this site for 3 years now. I remember the first time I found this site I kept going to it all day long it was so hard to look at. It hurt so much that someone so innocent was taken away from all of us. I just want Katie, her family and friends to know that they all have been in my prayers since the first night I found this site and still is to this day! I am only 16 and still haven't started driving yet. It just scares me on how quickly someone's life can be taken away but thanks to Katie I will be so much more cautious then I would have been before. Katie and Brandi you are very much loved and missed. We all are looking forward to seeing you once again and some for the first time. Love, Tiffany Thomson 16,WA
Kate, Your mother, Joel and I miss you and love you more each passing day. Please visit us as often as you can and help us to be sensitive to your presence. I know you are happy, healthy and busy in your new life. Keep up the good work I know you are doing. Love, Dad XOXOXOXOXO's
Kate, There is a new song out called, "Katie". It reminds us of how you radiate love and command such a presence when you are in a room. I hope you know how much I love you and miss you. Love, Dad
Missing you always baby girl! Luv- Amber & Megan
My mom and dad were taken way on the 1st of June. They were in a car crash and I am at a care home now. I am only 12. This web site made me feel and think that I should not be upset but be happy for the time I've have with them. I hope Katie Marie Aylor will r.i.p.
Hey my lil Kta..it's Lizzy. I haven't written in a long time & I'm missing you so much lately. The other night I had the weirdest dream with Sarah Turner. She was looking for her car in the high school parking lot and she was so real and alive and I was talking to her. I asked her why I couldn't see you and talk to you like that but she said she didn't know. I think I had that dream though because you were trying to say hi:) I hope Sarah is doing well up there & tell Brandi I miss her too. I always wonder what college you would be going to and what new things you had to tell me about your amazing life. Stay in touch babygirl, I really enjoy it:)
Everytime I think about you and Brandi, it feels like I knew you. I kind of miss you, but I don't know who are. It's like I'm going to cry. I wish that you 2 where still alive, and I wish you good luck Katie and Brandi ------------------Sam from Norway------
I have been on this website often the last couple of weeks. It is amazing how many lives that Katie has touched. I just wanted to let you all know that Katie will never be forgotten and her family and friends are always in my prayers. I love ya Aylor's! Jenni
Love you and miss you KTA. you're in my thoughts everyday. *Dani*
Hey Katie, it is crazy to think it has been so long, I miss you so much. Joel and I talk just about every day. I can see you in him so much. You two are so different but so similar it is weird. We all miss you so much. It is surprising how many times you pop in my mind. It is every day. You are awesome. I hope you are having fun. We wish you were here with us though-I LOVE YOU and MISS YOU SO SO MUCH
I found your website while searching online for a poem. My brother was killed in a horrible car accident June 13, 2004 at the age of 21. Just wanted to say I know what you all are going through and thank you for having such an inspirational website. I have made a website for my brother (www.geocities.com/phillipcharlesbrummitt) although it's not nearly as nice. Take care and thanks.
I stumbled onto this website and was captivated by Katie, her poetry, her beauty, and the clear love you can simply see by looking at her. My heart breaks for you and yours and I know your precious angel is watching over you longing to be with you again. As my kids grow and reach driving age I am afraid. I will share Katie's story of loss with them so hopefully they will be just a little bit more aware and a little safer on the road. I can only imagine the pain you must feel in your loss. Know that a good and loving God is caring for you and caring for Katie. All things are part of a larger plan. I will offer up my Mass for Katies soul today. May God bless her and all who loved her.

I never had the privilege of meeting this beautiful young woman, but rather just stumbled upon this website when trying to locate information for my 5th grade classroom (I am a teacher). After reading everything on the site, I feel that I know your Katie and you have done a wonderful job in keeping her memory alive. Although it is never the same, I too lost someone very dear to me a few years ago and every single day is a struggle mixed with wonderful memories of my dear "Nana". I am sure her and Katie are dancing and singing with the Lord and walking those beautiful streets of gold. Just remember that those who go before us will be there to greet us when we take our journey to the other side. Keep her in your heart forever and she will live if only in the memories here on Earth. May God bless you and hold you close. I know it is never easy and never will be, but His comfort has gotten me through some very rough times. Love to all, Mrs. Carrie D'Angelo P.S. The website was overwhelmingly powerful :o)
Hey Kiddo! Amanda has been thinking about you a lot lately now that she is your age. She put off drivers ed for over a year. She has finally taken the plunge and is driving now. No license till at least October though. She is looking at colleges this summer! She's going to apply to KY Christian, Lynchburg, and here in Washington at Eastern WA University. I hope she decides to go to KY Christian. She'd be going with Ian. She lost a couple of friends this past spring. 1 took his life and the other was in an auto accident. Both were tragic and senseless. She's asked the boys to seek you out. You'll like them. They had family problems here, but I'm sure they are happy now. Kyle is doing well. Off all meds but his anti-seziure stuff. Growing like a weed. Do me a favor will ya? Now that Amanda is independent for the most part, keep an eye on her for me, 'K? I think she has a pretty good head on her shoulders, and so far has made responsible decisions beyond her years, but she could always use a little help, ya know? She'll know you're there. We won't be able to come back and see the family this year. We are all bummed about it. In a way, I'm kinda glad. i know it would be hard on your mom. I can't even imagine the pain she will always feel. Please let your folks know I love them, and think about them often. All my love, JeanMarie
My name is Kaytllin, today my best friend Steph told me about this site and we have been sitting here looking at it for about an hour. We lost one of our best friends on the 4th of July 2003. Cody touched our life like Katie had touched many of yours. Cody was 15 and was on his way back from firework show in billings Mt and he and 3 other girls lost control of the car and he was the only one who passed away. We miss him dearly and this site and the loss of his life have tought us to not take life so quickly but to live it to the fullest. My thoughts are with you and your family. Kaytlin (billings mt)
Hey, our names are Chantelle And Rebecca and we found this site and decided to look around..after reading everything and looking at her pictures we feel as if we knew her like one of her friends..it almost made us cry thinking how tragic it must have been we feel really sorry for you guys..Its so heartbreaking to see that she died at only 16! that was the hardest thing to see, she was so beautiful and she was so caring about everyone and made them feel as if they were loved no matter what the situation..Anyways our hopes are with you and katie peace+love Becca and Chantelle<3
Katie--I went to the King's Island water park the other day--all I could think about was the time that your mom took us, Joel & your cousin there in the summer of 1997. We were in the wave pool while Joel took your cousin on a ride and we saw that woman who's bikini top had come off--she had no idea and her son wouldn't tell her. That's all we talked and laughed about for the next 4 years--I know we'll laugh about it again:-) Danielle (Boyles) Rodriguez
Katie, I'm sorry it's been so long since I've wrote. I've been going through a really rough time in my life. I often lay in my bed at night and think about you and wish that you were back with us. I could use your advice right now more than ever. I know that your always with me in my heart. I love you and miss you like crazy.
KT BUG......it is so hard to go on without you in my life. You were and always will be my best friend. I remember staying up so late at each others houses just talking and having fun. We always talked about boys *who was hot or not*, family, and just came up with crazy ideas and things to do. I miss that more than anything. I just keep hoping that one day I will wake up and this was just a horrible nightmare and when I call your house Joel will tell me that you are already on your way to my house or that you are still sleeping! It's so hard to go back to that town and see everyone and know that you aren't there and to see your family or Dylan that you aren't right along side of them. When I see your family and especially Joel my heart just stops because I know they don't have their little girl or sister anymore just like I don't have my best friend. When I do come to town I always stop by the site and just think about how it used to be and how awesome and crazy you were, and how we always how fun no matter how bad things were. I am doing the best I can to take care of Mr. Dylan but we all just wish you were here. I love you girlie with all my heart and soul and I can't wait to finally see you again. I know you are watching down over me and I hope over Mr. Jesse over in Iraq and I am so sure you are having a blast up there in heaven partying it up! But down here we wish you were partying it up with us. I love you and miss you for always. Be good and make sure Brandi is ok too and don't do anything I wouldn't do....doesn't leave u much not to do as u always said. We miss you girls and be safe! I love you the bestie!
Katie~ I Love You and Miss You now more than ever!!!
Hi Katie....I have been thinking lots about you lately, sweets...just wanted to let you know that I think of you so much, you`re in my heart forever...big hug, xxx joost
Dear Aylor-Family, thank you for this homepage (which touches people all over the world). I`m sure your daughter was a wonderful person. Claudia (18 years, Germany)
Hey darling, you know who I am. I'm sorry I haven't come here for a while, I find it so hard... and here I am crying my eyes out. To think I'm meant to pick up my cousin in a minute. I wish so much that you were with your family right now.. that this life wasn't so hard. I'm trying to appreciate it, and I feel guilty because I can't see the good things anymore - and they must be there. Please help me, please don't let me forget who I am and why I'm still living. Visit me sometime soon yeah? Take care, I hope you're alright <3
Katie is an AMAZING girl! You can see that she was full of love and life! I'm very sorry about what happened with her, it really touches my heart and I'm sure evry1 else's too! The parents and everyone that helped with the website sure did a fine job and I'm sure that if Katie was here with us she would appreciate this a lot! I wish everyone a happy and safe life! Luv you Katie girl!
Hey, Kate. I love you and miss you more each and every day. You will always be my "Little Princess" and I'm proud to be your father! Love, Dad
Hello Mr. Aylor! My name is Daniel from Germany! I discovered this Site only by coincidence. But this coincidence moved me very much. I am in thoughts with you and admire her so a beautiful daughter to have had! I have to do not very much with death, but I this Site is so intensive that this side affect so much humans and carry many Kate in its heart!
Virginia, July 7, 2005 Dear The Aylor Family, My name is Anne Khanh-Van. I am Vietnamese. I just discovered your webpage by coincidence. I was lucky indeed because your webpage is so lovely, rich and useful. I can see that you put a lot of time and love in building “Katie’s house”. I like the warm atmosphere that made me feel very "family" and comfortable when I visited around. Katie was such a beautiful girl both inside and outside!! I have read most of Doctor Raymond A. Moody’s books and some of Tibetan monks; I believe death just takes away our bodies and not our spirits because sometime we can feel that “they” are always alive around people they love. While visiting Katie’s house, I had some kind of feelings that Katie was around and in my mind’s eye, I saw Katie’s smile. I can understand how hard it is when we lost our loved ones. More than 20 years ago, our family lost 4 persons. They probably died among the boat-people who escaped Vietnam for freedom. I was very close to one, who was my aunt. She was about 18 when she left us. I had never stopped thinking about her and everyday I had been wondering what happened to my lovely aunt and other people in that boat. I missed my aunt very much and sometimes wished to see her again. During 7300 day of 20 years, I had never had any dream about my aunt until last October 31, 2004, she came back to me, held me in her arms and answered all my questions. I woke up in tears at 5 o’clock in the morning! I just stood up and wrote down every details of that dream. After all experiences that I have overcome in my life, I believe that when we believe strongly in something and are loyal to that belief, we will be responded soon or later. During our conversation, my aunt told me that she is all right and misses all of us. She wants us to be happy for her to be happy, so I guess Katie wants the same things. I still remember the day my aunt said “Good Bye” and left us. I almost went with her but then I hesitated and decided to stay with my parents (I was only a kid!). Now, when thinking back about that day, about I was almost gone and never came back, I understood that maybe because I haven’t accomplished the mission that I have to do in this lifetime, that’s why God made me “stay”! However, it’s not always that we can have all answers from God! Maybe only because we are so “human” that we cannot understand God’s thinking and purpose! For me, death is sad because it separates us into two different worlds but it has positive side, which is to help us appreciate our lives and all what we still have right now; it also helps us to live better and try to make other people happy. I appreciate very much all the works and time you have put in Katie’s house. Your generosity and care for other people have helped them to appreciate their presences in this world. Through your act, I can see that you have a very rich inner-life. When people have a rich inner life, they are close to God; and if they are close to God, they are not alone; God will hear them and give them what they need to overcome all obstacles in their lives. I wish the best of luck to all of you. Talk to Katie because she can hear you; like me, I talk to my aunt, uncle and all my loved ones who left me, and they heard me!! Thank you for giving me the opportunity to discover your extraordinaire people. You helped me to enrich my inner-life. I will come back more often to visit Katie and you all. Love, Anne www.khanhvanweb.com
I'm sitting here not knowing what to say, but knowing my heart wants to say something. I do not know how I found this web site, but it has touched me to the point where tears are running down my face. Katie you were a beautiful young woman. You were loved so much, and you have touched so many people... including myself. The pictures of you and Joel look exactly like pictures of me and my younger sister Melissa. We are both blondes too. It made me realize that I need to tell people I care about that I love them more often. I know that you are still around Katie... I have a strong faith... and if you have the time... I ask that you look over me and my family and friends also. There has to be a reason that I found your web site, and I only wish that I could have met you before you moved on to the better place. You are touching so many people... and I have no doubt at all that you are behind it. You are making people find your web site... I can feel that you are here... even though I never knew you. I will remember you and who you were. Matt Abrams, 24, Oshawa, Ontario, Canada
1 month and it'll be 3 years....I can't believe you've been gone that long!!! We miss and love you babe!!!
Katie- WOW- what can I say? I'm pretty speechless. I stumbled across this site while searching for a car on Google!!!! I've been looking over the site for the past hour or so, and I've come to the conclusion that you're up there looking down on everyone, not just your friends and family, (because you cared for many others than just them) and you're trying to help people see the world as you do. And let me tell ya, you sure did slap me in the face! I long to see the world as you do, care for as many people as you do, touch as many people as you have, and are still doing! I think I would enjoy life much more if I can try to live how you lived (to the fullest, although short) and work on my bad attitudes that I have been struggling with lately, bc what good is life if you don't even enjoy being here as much as you did? I am sad to have never been close to you (or even met you), or anyone like you, as I am sure you would have kept me smiling always! I bet you would have never thought you would still be touching people's lives after you were gone, but I sure do hope that everyone that you have touched, lets you know how much you mean to them! I'll be thinking about ya, and praying for your family. THANKS AGAIN! J Maddy, Newark Ohio
It has been a year since I added a message on this website. Earlier on today I found out a boy form my school year in the uk, nethaniel, had passed away. This has been a big shock for everyone around here, and immediately I was drawn to this website for comfort because seeing everyone's memories of Katie and her beautiful pictures re-assure me nethaniel is in heaven with God. Katie baby gurl you are never forgotten and please look after nethaniel. I sit here saddened and want to reach out to you somehow and I know by writing this and praying every night for you both, and all who join you in heaven I will reach out and get my message across. I have never met you but have a feeling that I have known you for all my life. Thoughts and prayers go out every night and may your souls rest in peace for all of time. Baby gurl I love u so much. You have had such a positive effect on my life and when I'm down thoughts of you get me up and you are proof nothing should get you down. You are truly one in a million. Love you baby gurl, and nethaniel take care of Katie alright mate, love u all. see you soon! Grivas 16 -uk- xxxxxxxx
I didn't know your daughter Katie but this is a beautiful website you have made for her....Karissa
I Love You and Miss You soooo much Beautiful... <3 Dee
Hi Katie, hello to all the people that r missing you. It's at least the 5th time I'm visited this website, it touched and keeps touching me so deep. I've found it on google and I will make a website (of course not as nice as this because this website is untoppable) like this for one of my best friends which I've lost on August 27th 2004 in a motorcycle accident (22 yrs) . I just wanted to say: this is the website that everyone that lost someone that important would like to have and would need to have... Thank you Aylor Family for touching and getting together so many uncountable peoples from so many different countries... Katie, you really made me look further and comprehend a lot more about the other "side" of life which I just didn't want to realize... THANK YOU AYLORS!!! YOU made me trust again in something devine... God bless you all Make the best of your life and don't waste it with stupidities because it's tooo short for not having fun. Sebastian Rome Italy
KTA. I miss you A LOT...You are ALWAYS on my mind & that's how its been for the past almost 3 years...I love you oh so much. KEEP WATCH OVER ALL OF US PRECIOUS ANGEL <3 Dani
KTA ~ I'm needin you now to help me remember to keep a smile on my face and that things will work out just as they're meant to be. I need the strength of your voice and the love of your heart. You're famous KTA ... this website has touched the world!
Katie.. babygirl I miss you so much.. I wish you were still here to experience all the things all of your friends and family have went thru these past 3 years now. I'm sure you would still keep all of us smiling. I miss you and Brandi more then ever.. tell Sarah I said Hi and I love her and miss her more and more everyday! I miss all my angels in heaven. Watch over us! I love you babygirl!!!!!
I never knew Katie I'm from Canada but I came over this site a year ago and since then I've been captured by all u have accomplished Katie. It's sad to know your in heaven but its comforting knowing u will never hurt. I lost my best friend 4 years ago can u keep him safe. I owe u big if u do. You have impacted my life in so many ways. I now don't look at things so negatively. Peace n love Angel... candy edmonton alberta canda
Hey Katie, I haven't visited in a while. I know that I barely knew you , just through my step-sister and stuff, but I still miss you none the less. I can't believe it, next week will be 3 years. Its just hard to believe. I know you are up there w/ Brandi watching over all of us. Thanks for being there last week, I felt like you were at least. Just keep it real up there baby girl, keep watching over us. Love and miss you, can't wait to see you again. xoxo Love you girls. KTA&BSC
Well, I am another one who just stumbled onto this web site. I'm really at a loss for words. Someone could only be so lucky to have the kind of friends and family you all are! I sat here and read these messages, the more I read, the more it seemed like I knew her. I'm 22 years old, and a bit of a wild guy, but I guess Katie probably thought nothing could ever happen to her. It makes you realize how precious life really is. Well, I'm very sorry to all, as many has written, she's watching over you all. The kind of love you all have for her is more powerful then any of us could ever know! God Bless!
Almost three years KTA. How can one still cry? I don't know, but it sure does happen. It somehow seems as though the loss expands over time, rather than eases up. People say it gets easier as time passes. That's not the truth; at least not here, not in this case.
First of all I love and miss you both so much.....these past few years have not been the same without you here. Your bright, smiling, funny personalities are so missed. I still remember when I found out about the accident....I was at soccer game against North West and when we got told the tragic news. I didn't know what to do.....my heart sunk....so I rose up and held a prayer for you guys....I wasn't sure why I did this but for some reason I told myself I needed to....it has been the hardest thing I have ever had to do till this day. I love you guys so much and I miss you with all my heart. KTA and BC we love you!
I remember being in Mrs. Aylor's class and Katie coming in with Brandi and helping us with our work.
I really enjoyed reviewing this incredible website. What an awesome way for all who love Katie to express their feelings. Karol, I met you today for the first time, and my heart simply went out to you. Your are one of my daughters teachers. (I'm Harleigh's mom) I will continue to keep you and your family in my prayers. Katie was obviously loved and admired by all that knew her and even now by people who have grown to know and love Katie through countless numbers of heartfelt messages. I feel blessed to know you all and I look forward to getting to know you better. Thank you for sharing your personal feelings with us today. Katie, I don't know you personally but I am glad to see there is a place where all can share their memories of life with you and the people who love you. All the pictures are beautiful. What an amazing family! May God bless you all! J. Wickman
Well KT it has been yet another birthday without you. I keep think of all the crazy things we would have done to celebrate. Even though you weren't entirely here I still could feel you presence and I knew you were watching over me. I love you Bug....Meg
miss you more and more everyday......august 27 creeps up on me every year and I remember everything....I love you guys
Katie Bug..it's three years today and it still feels so unreal. Love you and miss you and I can't wait until we meet again. *Tuesday's gone with the wind..* All my love, Lucy Bug
You know who it is but I can not believe that it has been 3 years already, that is crazy. Just remember we will never forget you. I sometimes wish I could trade you places, I think you have it much easier there, it is a much better place. Keep smiling and watching over everyone! We all love you so much!
Katie, You must be here with me today because I was here on the computer and all of a sudden I had the urge to come to your website and I saw that the accident was 3 years ago today and chills went down my spine because me, being really bad with dates did not even realize what day it was. Megan misses sitting next to you at church and you painting her nails! Jeff, Joel, and Karol, although I do not attend Harmony anymore you guys remain in my heart and prayers.
Everyday, and today especially, my thoughts are with Brandi & family, Katie, and the Aylor family. With admiration, Chris from Andover, UK. PS. At 10.27 this evening I'm sure I will shed a tear for you Katie. I long to meet you one day.
hey hun I can't believe it has been 3 years since you left this life...it's so unreal! You are loved and missed now more than ever but you will remain in our hearts and minds forever! 3 years ago today when God decided he needed an extraordinary angel, so he took you...the most precious and amazing person the earth had to offer! You will never be forgotten Katie! Your spirit and legacy will live on forever. You have changed so many peoples lives including mine, and for that we will always be forever grateful to you:) I love ya tons hun, and I can't wait to see you one day in heaven :)
3 years today babe.. :(
Three years KTA ~ I still can't believe it ~ I'll be lighting a candle for you this evening and remembering you more than ever!
Its been 3 years... still can't believe it. Everyone misses you and B down here. No one will ever forget you. Keep looking out for us. Love & miss you* ...<3
I never got to meet Katie but I know what it like to loose best friends. Four of my best girlfriends were killed in an accident so I know what its like but we just have to know that the Lord did this for a reason. I hope everyone can have a good day instead of a hard one. Hopefully some day I will be lucky and get to meet Katie. With all my love and concern, Tosha!!
I can't believe it's been three years...we all still love and miss you...whitney
Hi I'm Samantha and I met Katie at the movie. She was so funny. She was nice to everyone and she was a good friend and I will miss her 4every. Her friend Samantha
Rest in peace girls. Your memory lives on.
KT, I can't believe it has been 3 yrs. I miss you so much. Joel, Karol, and Jeff you will always be in my prayers and I always think of you. I love you Kt Bug!
I came across this page by accident, like many others who signed this book. After reading all the testaments of people that knew her I can see that Katie must have been a wonderful person. I am sorry for your loss.
she lived
Hey Katie Bug...I just wanted to tell you that I am missing you like crazy!!!! Its been 3 years and its still shocking to know that you are now in a better place....please keep my friend Andrew safe and also our little Mike Doran...you Brandi Andrew & Mike are my guardian angels and I love you all so very much.... forever in my heart and mind. Jamie Butcher
Katie - I never had the privilege of knowing you. However I've been drawn in by the love I feel from this website. You still shine on. Thanks for opening my eyes to so much, and I hope you're hanging out with Shannon, a friend of mine who also died in a car accident. I hope I'll meet you one day. Love, L.
Hey babe I was just thinking about you and just wanted to tell you how much I still miss and love you.
All I can say is that I miss you and wish that you could experience life with me at this moment.
You're on my mind today lil Ktbug....just wanted you to know, love & miss you<33
Hi Katie. Its not like we were great friends in high school, I was much closer to your brother, but everyone knew you! You always said hi, and I do have some fun memories of the two of us spending time together. Anyway, I'm in college now and I recently lost a close friend that I made here. I remember crying my eyes out at your funeral not even being able to imagine what Forge, Haley, Meg, Butcher, Jenny and your other close friends were going through. I unfortunately know that pain now, and it really is something that I think of everyday. You were an amazing part of this earth, and just like my friend touched, more people than you will ever know! Lots of love to you! I know your friends and family still miss you everyday as I do, trust me, I know.
Katie Marie, I love and miss you so much... please know you will never be forgotten and we will all miss you till the day we die... love you<3
miss you kate...
I didn't know her. I just stumbled across this site and this is so sad...may the Lord be with you. Since I didn't know her I don't know what else to say but I'm sorry
Katie Aylor and Brandi Cook- you are in my hearts; I came across your site accidentally, but was fascinated by the two girls I was reading about. Two beautiful young girls who seemed so loving and incredibly happy. I lost my Nana to a drunk driver when I was younger and missed out on a lot of opportunities spending time with her, because she was paralyzed in the hospital. I hope you two lived a fulfilled and happy life, and from all your friends' entries, it sounds like you did. You two have amazing families and admirers, and that is a great thing. God bless both of you. Rest in peace...Love, Cassandra Aylor family- your site dedicated to your daughter is truly amazing. I cant even comprehend the pain and sadness you feel, but remember what a beautiful and joyful girl you brought up and think about all the people she is making happy in heaven. <3
My most fondest memory of Katie was when she would just come up to me and start talking to me. We would talk about everything like school life etc. She was a really good friend. Although she only did this a few times it was still the best memory I have Katie. I miss you Katie and I will see you again. Jordan Fields
HEY, Katie and I were at a slumber party and we did truth or dare and she said if I die tell my parents I love them - tell them my life is filled up with joy any time I see them! Sincerely, Jamie
Katie I love you and miss you every day. I can't wait to see you up in heaven
As a lot of the people that left posts here, I too came to this site on accident a few days ago. I have been drawn to it ever since. I feel complete sorrow for her friends and family. It seems to me like Katie's friends and family were very lucky to be have known her. My way of thinking has changed ever since I came to this site and I'm so glad I got to peek into a fraction of the life of this seemingly wonderful and incredible person. Thank You!!
Hello, my name is Raymond, 29 years. I live in The Netherlands. I was searching for a Katie , and came to your site. I was touched by your site, like many others. I know how feels to lose someone, it hurts and the pain will fade but never goes away. To loose a child is the worst thing that can happen to a parent. She looked very nice to me, a lovely girl. I hope you will have the strength to carry on... ! yours sincerely, Raymond
I miss you a lot, KTA. *Dani
After all the recent loses it makes me think more and more how precious time is. I never knew you very well but I hope I meet you once again someday. You're in my thoughts
Kta, Just thinking about u and how much we all miss u. U should be here with us. Love u 4ever, and remembering u now more than ever Love BASH
Jeff, Karol and Joel, I cannot begin to imagine what you have been through these past 3 years. I'm from Andover in the UK, and I felt you should know I think of Katie almost every day. I'm not sure how you react when you see comments from people who never knew Katie, but you have kept her spirit alive through this website. Whenever I'm in a difficult situation, I think of Katie and wonder how she would have reacted to it. True, I've only this website to go by, but from all the memories people have shared here I have a fairly good idea of how positive she would be. She'd smile, shrug off the problem and think of a way to feel good about herself - and that's something I've learnt to do myself. So thank you, not just for the website but for bringing such a wonderful person into this world. Not only has Katie helped me in that respect, but she also introduced me to Diamond Rio! I now have 4 of their albums and I love them! She had great taste in music. You're a wonderful person, Katie, and I long to meet you one day xx
Bug..This weekend Forge, Dani, and I all went to visit Haley at Auburn. The whole time I was there I couldn`t get you off my mind. I kept thinking about how you would be there with us being just as crazy as the rest of us. I miss you more then ever lately. Not a day goes by that I don`t think of you or tell a story about something you did or said. You will forever hold a special place in my heart. Look over me and guide me through these next few months! Love and miss both you and Brandi.....Meg
LOVE AND MISS YOU KATIE BUG ~
I was sitting here at work, and I got an email from one of my co-workers, when I opened it, it was about Angels, the first person I thought of was Katie. She was an Angel here on earth, and now she's everyone who has came in contact, who's been so blessed to be able to see her smile, to hear her laughter, now we know she's watching over us, laughing from up above, we know that breeze in the summer time, is her passing by just to say hi, when know that when the sun is shinning so bright, it's her smiling, I was not as close as some, but I was blessed to know both Katie and Brandi, theirs not a day goes by I do not stop a little moment just to send my wishes, and say hi. Here are some of the quotes from the email.. It left me with some inspiration I hope it leaves you with some to.
Some people come into our lives and quickly go.. Some people become friends and stay awhile... leaving beautiful footprints on our hearts... and we are never quite the same because we have made a good friend!! Yesterday is history. Tomorrow a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why it's called the present! I think this is special...live and savor every moment... This is not a dress rehearsal! Never take away anyone's hope. That may be all they have
Thanks Katie and Brandi, for not only being so beautiful and loving, but hopefully for everyone to see that life is very precious and sometimes, we need someone or something taken from us, who's so great so loving, to show us how life really works, and how life is not a joke, it's here and now, and loving someone is the greatest thing we can do!
Kate, I love you and miss you. I feel you're presence with us all the time and Joel loved his birthday gift! You are so thoughtful. Love. Dad
Miss Katie~ Lately, my students have been asking about the picture of you on my bulletin board. I love being able to tell them what a beautiful person you are, and I hope that I am able to touch many of them with your story. Continue to do your good work. I miss you, Coney

Katie ~ Having never had the pleasure to meet you I find it incredible to say that you have inspired me more than any other person I've known, but that's true. The day I was blessed by visiting this website, my life changed. My outlook on life is so different and so much better, thanks to you and of course your loving family. I've been visiting this website now for well over a year, and I think of you every single day. I've often talked to you. I've asked for some sign that you are OK, happy and watching over all of us. Last night I dreamt of you for the first time. I was walking past my village pub and you were sat with a group of people in conversation on a table outside. You looked up at me and smiled, and I jolted awake...feeling warm and blessed. I know it's the closest I'll ever come to experiencing your smile and I thank you so much for visiting me - you're so uplifting. All the way from Andover in the UK, I'm thinking of you more than ever. I'm wishing so much that I could have met you at least once. Your smile has brightened up my life, and I've written you this poem KTA. I long to meet you someday ~ Chris xxx
Katie
You are to this world what a star is to sky Gave all those who knew you the courage to fly You brighten the lives of your family and friends Such a loss when a life like yours finally ends Your spirit lives on in the wind and the trees We all feel your warmth in every cold breeze The love that your loved ones feel for you now With your love they’ll get through this together somehow You loved to cheerlead and you loved to dance Your beautiful smile and elegant stance Come alive in the photos your website includes I can hear your sweet singing, I can feel your good moods I don’t attend church, don’t know what to believe But I’m feeling the hurt and to this day I grieve You gave me new meaning, you gave me new goals I believe in your spirit, I believe in your soul You taught me forgiveness, you taught me to smile When life gets me down I’ll think of you for a while And I’ll find a solution, I won’t draw a blank I’ll get through with a smile and it's you that I'll thank I hope that you realize how much that you give You continue to teach those like me how to live Though your body has left us, your soul will not leave Rest In Peace, KTA, and by the way, I believe.
My lil Kta, Lately I just can't seem to get you off my mind. I keep thinking who you would be today & what you would be doing. I'm finishing my first quarter up at OU & I can't believe how time flies. There is a girl here at OU that looks IDENTICAL to you. I just want to go up to her & give her a hug! She even has that same attitude walk you always had ;) She must think I am crazy because every time I see her I just stare because I am in such awe of how much you two look alike. It makes me think you are here. I miss you so much Katie and I seriously can't wait until the day I can see you again. All my love, Lizzy <3
Hey!, I didn't know Katie but I was going threw some web-sites on the web and ran across this one. It wasn't so much the story that caught my eye but her picture, like I have seen her somewhere before or something and I started reading. I don't usually cry when I go to web-sites but on this one I did. It's weird how you don't know someone then when you look at a web-site about them or read a book about them it feels like you have known them forever. I wish I could have met Katie. She looked and sounded like a very fun and loving person and someone who could always make you smile and laugh when you were feeling down. This is the first time I have ever been to this web-site but I hope to continue visiting it and telling others about it and how awesome Katie is and was. Its amazing how when you lose someone you love they still feel like there right there with you. Like any day now there just going to come through the door and give you a big hug and say "I'm home!" I think about it a lot with some of my late family members! Well I wish the best of luck in the future to Katie's friends and family! God Bless.............Brittani from North Carolina
Katie Marie... in 6 days.. it will be 3 years and 3 months.. I still cannot believe its been that long without you here with us!! I see your mom all the time out drivin and everything.. I can see it in her eyes that she misses you so much.. I still remember that day like it was yesterday . . I was on my way to soccer, I already didn't feel good. The following day had to have been the worst day ever!! I hate thinkin about it. I miss you Katie Marie and so does everyone else.. you know when Simmy left us..

I love all you guys with everything I have.. watch over us!!! <33333333
I was at my mom and dad's on Saturday. I was sitting in the chair by the window when I heard voices. Dad and I looked outside and I swear there was an "eight year old Katie" running down the street. We were waiting for her to come up to the door and ask us to buy whatever she was selling for school. I guess she will always be that crazy eight year old to us. ~Kari
KTA, I wanted to wish you Happy Thanksgiving!!! I hope ur having fun up there in heaven, because we miss you sooo much down here. Can't wait to see you soon!!! I love you!!! Jeff, Karol, and Joel-have a wonderful thanksgiving!!!! Ally
Dearest Katie, My name is Katie too. Back sometime last year, I came across you site here. I looked at every picture and read every poem. Your family and friends miss you desperately. I am in the 9th grade and I live in Georgia. Ever since last year, I continuously find myself coming back to your page. Also, my mom passed away in 1998, so I know exactly how much your family misses you. Have fun up there and say hello to my mom for me. Lots of love, Katie Molock p.s. I hope that I get the special chance to meet you one day.
Ooh Yeah... Happy Thanksgiving!!! to her parents: You raised a beautiful daughter, I will take a piece of her and keep it in my heart.
KTA Happy Thanksgiving baby girl, I was just sitting here thinking about you! Love you! Jessica~~
Katie, I just wanted to get on here and tell you Happy Thanksgiving and let you know that you are still in my heart and always will be. I love and miss you dearly : ) <33333
Hello my name is Deaundra Mitchell and I am a student at Hamilton Freshman School and I have Mrs. Coni Duning for a teacher. When I heard about Katie I felt really bad. It really touched me in a way no story has ever touched me before. Love Deaundra
I found this site from a friend and I am very sorry for your loss. I will keep her family in my prayers. She seemed like a wonderful person. -Mel
My Katie bug I miss you so much. I love so much. I wish you were here with me right now. I can't wait to see you. Every Christmas I think you have the best cause you are up in Heaven with Jesus. That is a great Christmas to be up there. Love you so much Katie Bug James Hibbard
Dearest AYLOR Family. I stumbled across this website while looking at Forever Friend Bears. I really understand in so many ways how you feel. I also lost my cousin Katie Maree Harris in a car accident almost 10 months ago. Katie was killed on February 8th 05. She was only 19 3 months and 4 days young. I know that Katie is now IN HEAVEN WITH OUR LOVING FATHER. Although I miss her more than I imagined possible. I know Katie is happy and always by our side. I hope as God is with me That He is with you. And that as I didn't have the pleasure in knowing your ANGEL I'm sure my Angel Kate has met yours. God bless and may He always carry your heart... As our KATES soar to new heights AMEN
Thinking about you Katie. Love, Uncle David
Haven't been here in awhile, so I thought I'd stop by and say 'hey'...we all love and miss you still Katie and we can't wait to see you again...<3 you...Whitney
Thinking of you tonight, KTA - for some reason I knew I had to come and visit your site tonight. Funny how you make your visits, hmm? :) Anyway, love you lots and keep watch over us all. I love you KTA.
I just wanted to say how proud you must be of Katie & how beautiful a person she is. I too have a daughter that will turn 19 in January. The site forced me to think "if". I can only hope that I would be as strong as your family has been. I lost my mother to cancer 12/21/99, & my wife just defeated Hodgkin's. It Just makes you look @ life a lot differently. My heart and prayers go out to you & yours @ this time of year. This site is a beautiful way to remember & look back know matter where you are. Ty Bill
I am not good at English. cuz I'm an asian girl, I am so sad about what happened, don't be sad, cuz, u guys know that Katie always beside us, she will not be happy if we are unhappy, god bless you guys
FRIENDSHIP Friends are just like flowers They bloom along the way Some seem to last forever Others a few short days I am thankful for each friendship On this winding road Each one has helped in some way To carry my heavy load So God in all your wisdom Help me my friendship share Especially to that one who needs To know that someone cares Barbara Spencer from James Hibbard
when you ask me what´s more important for me ,,you or my life´´. and I said my life. then you were gone without to now that you are my life!!! yours faithfully lena gorges from germany!! this page has take the deep red from my heard!!
I'm very sorry ..... I could never imagine loosing a child or a sister.... that would be very hard... I thank u for finding the courage to go through everything she's done for the last 16 years and say to a stranger like me.... thankx. u r my hero
I didn't know Katie, but I came across her site one day, and it reminded me of my cousin. Chelsea was involved in a car accident May 2004, She was In a car with 5 others, and the driver made the dumb decision to drink and drive. Chelsea fortunately was lucky enough to survive the accident, but sadly almost 2 years later, she is still fighting for her life. She continues to go in and out of the hospital, and is going through a great deal of physical pain, as well as emotional, she, like Katie, was only 16 when the accident occurred. My heart goes out to Katie and her family. It must be so hard to lose a loved one. I know how much my family hurts for Chelsea everyday, and I cant even begin to imagine the pain you must feel. Katie is such a beautiful young woman.
So Bug it`s been awhile since I`ve been on here but don`t think I`m not thinking about you ever second of the day. It has been some not so great few days. I have a lot on my mind and I really wish you were here to talk to. I know you would know what to do and say. I miss you so much! Love you always and forever.....MH

A year ago I came across this page, and I'm still visiting it. Every time I read or look at the pictures I get a tear in my eyes, it's like I have met them before and it hurts, to know that they're not here anymore. Merry Christmas Katie and Brandi<3<3 Sam --Norway-- 24.december 2005 4:40am
Merry Christmas, Katie. Also, I want to send my love and prayers to the rest of the Aylor family. I have learned so much from Katie although we've never met. We'll be sending our prayers to you and above for Katie tonight. Thanks, Katie, for those little signs you send. I believe. <3

Jeff, Karol and Joel ~ This is a quick request actually. Just to ask if the poem I wrote for Katie (which I posted here on November 18th 2005) can be put onto the Poems section of this website. This site has become a big part of my life, with Katie and her family such an inspiration to me as you are to many others. I'd feel honoured if my poem was on the Poems page. With love and admiration, Chris xxx
i have no idea how i came across this site, but i am sadned for the loss of your daughter.
