“When the nurse unlocked the door and I saw his hair, I knew it was him. My sweet, innocent, perfect baby brother who had his entire life ahead of him, was laying there, lifeless.”
Katie’s mom Dawn suffered from two broken ankles, broken wrists, a fractured sternum, fractured ribs, bleeding in her spleen, a punctured lung, and a lacerated carotid artery. She won’t be able to work normally for at least a year.
Christopher’s girlfriend Melissa broke her femur in the accident and also had bruising on her abdomen.
Katie and her dad Ray were planning to wait to tell Dawn about what happened to Kamryn, Christopher, and Lindy after Dawn was taken out of the ICU.
As Dawn stabilized, she began asking Katie and Ray more questions about the accident and they had to break the news to her that Kamryn, Christopher, and Lindy passed away.
“Lindy had blossomed from a shy, quiet girl to a true beauty, inside and out,” Katie said about her 20-year-old sister.
“She had a radiance or light about her that those who knew her couldn’t explain. She was just hired to be an official photographer for her university.”
“Christopher, or “mom’s angel child” as Katie called him, was always concerned for his mom and worried about her spending even one penny on him,” Katie said about her 17-year-old brother.
“He was goal-oriented and planned to go to college to follow in his big brother’s footsteps. He had a plan to take and retake the ACT until he achieved a score of 32.”
“Kamryn has been described as one of the sweetest people on earth and so caring,” Katie said about her 15-year-old sister.
“She recently grew stronger in her faith, and the positive change in her was noticeable to others.”
