“Katie Mae” was born November 19th, 2008 to Chip and Mindee Vance, their second daughter. On Monday, April 27th, 2009 she lost a courageous and heartening battle with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA).

Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is a neuromuscular disease characterized by degeneration of motor neurons, resulting in progressive muscular atrophy (wasting away) and weakness

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to

    Im so sorry for the loss you have experienced. You dont deserve to have to go through something like this. You are the only one that shows respect to me whenever im in your shop, even though others presented prejudice because of my young age…
