Kaitlin's Funeral

Donation protected
My sister Kaitlin passed away suddenly early Sunday 30 April 2017. We don't know how. Only an autopsy will tell us but we do know it wasn't drugs or alcohol. Now we have to bury her with a life cut short.

Kaitlin was a cheeky bright bubbly person.  She was a friend to all.  A student at Harristown State High School Kaitlin had many friends.  She was also an Army cadet.  When Kaitlin was to finish school she had planned to join the Army full time and was proud to be able to serve her country.  Kaitlin was a Sergeant at cadets, which she took seriously, and used all she knew not just at cadets but across all aspects of her life.

My sister was the apple of Mum & Dad's eye.  The only girl between two boys, myself and 11 y.o. Brock.  That bright light that was Kaitlin is now extinguished.  It's so surreal to know I will never see her cheeky grin again nor hear her infectious laughter.  Our world is a little darker without the light that is Kaitlin.  I feel sorry for all those people that never got to know my sister because they missed out on someone special.

No one plans to bury their child and my Mum & Dad are now struggling to find funds to bury their only daughter and give her the send off that she deserves.  I want to honour my sister but I need your help.  We need funds to pay for my 16 y.o. sister's funeral.  Kaitlin deserves a funeral that shows how much she was loved, not just by her family but the many many friends that knew her.  I can't do that without your help.

Sarah & Tracey Drewes, close family friends, will be managing all funds we raise.  They will ensure that all monies will be used to give Kaitlin the send off she deserves.  Any funds that are left over will go towards a memorial fund at her Army cadets which would be important for Kaitlin. 

We hope to be able to bury Kaitlin as soon as the cause of death is determined.  But I need YOUR help.

Please help me bury my 16y.o little sister!
