Kate was a sweet soul who always made light of any situation. Her innocence made you realize how wonderful life can be.
My heart breaks to think of the pain you all must be going through.

Our hearts are sad to know Kate will no longer be with us. We loved her visits to PEI and she became a part of our family with her love and sense of humour.
We have a lot of happy memories and wish we had gotten more time with her.
I remember a time when we were making sleeping arrangements for everyone in the house at that time and I offered for Kate to sleep in with me. She thoughtfully considered it and agreed. We went to sleep holding hands.
That had a big impact on me. That is love.
She will be missed. Our memories of her are all beautiful and she will never be forgotten.
Bob and Freda and family are in our thoughts all the time. They now have an angel watching over them.

I met Kate for the first time on a brief visit with Spencer a few years ago. I knew how important she was to him and understood why when we were introduced. Kate had a presence and energy that stayed with me. I know that her light is shining even brighter now. My thoughts are with the Jeffries family and all who love Kate. May your memories of her and love for each other bring you comfort at this time.

My heart goes out to the whole family. My first ever career saw me - by mistake in a internship placement - chose to become a teacher for the deaf at Mackay. Kate was one of the students in the department. Not just one of the students actually… the spunkiest, funniest, most expressive and excited student there! Almost always smiling, she would chuckle out loud when I would do a mistake with my signing - correcting me with enthusiasm! I was only at Mackay for 3 years but consider myself lucky to have had her leave a mark on my life in that short time. She seems to have taken full advantage of her short life and spread her love everywhere. She will be missed, I am sure. My deepest condolences.

We were heart broken to hear of Kate's passing. Kate was truly an angel on earth, a bright light with a heart brimming with love for everyone and everything. She had many challenges throughout her life but her spirit refused to be dimmed. Her ultimate success in life is a shining testament to the power of love and family.
We will always cherish our memories of Kate. Her laugh, how she loved to tease and be teased but mostly how she loved, unconditionally and unreservedly.
Our deepest condolences, love and virtual hugs to Bob and Freda, Jamie, Robert, Spencer and their families.
Uncle Tony and Auntie Cathy.

My dear Freda and all the family,
I was shocked when Jaime called me with the tragic news about Kate. I am so very sorry for your loss, so unexpected after a lifetime of bringing her through so many challenges. So loved and integrated into your lives; no obstacle was too big for your family. Always looking for a way! Let's open a cafe so Kate can be involved; what about her dog biscuit business?!
An inspiration to all of us. Kate got her spunky attitude from her family and certainly was looking forward to the next steps of independence in her life.
We cannot understand on this side of heaven how she could have survived so much and then in a flash a circumstance which ended her life too soon in our perspective.
How your hearts must be hurting.........it happens when you have loved deeply with all you have and been loved back 100%.
We met you and your family because of Kate ( and Banu) and we love you. How can we but grieve as well.
Our prayers are with you, my friends.
Sharol, Banu, and Farah,..... and Stan

My deepest condolences to Katie's family and dear friend Heidi.
I am so saddend by the news of Katie's passing. Her joyful smile, her thoughtful kindness to all, her loyal friendship and cheerful disposition made Mackay Centre School that much more special and welcoming. New students had someone they could count on for smiles, encouragement and advice; troubled students found a firm but kind soul; young students just beginning to learn sign found in Katie a loving,encouraging tutor and teachers found a hard working, appreciative learner and an eager cheerleader through out all her classes and all areas of our educational institution. Katie's strong, loving relationship with her wonderful mom, Freda made her a role model for others learning a first language to build a parent/child relationship; gave teachers/mothers a lovely view of how wonderful a child/parent relationship can be and she constantly watched and learned from her mom how to be a helper, mentor and comforter to a child or friend needing emotional support.
I am thankful and a better teacher because of my interactions with Katie at Mackay School. Katie you will always have a special place in my heart.
