- Katie, 13 years of age, died August 15, 1998, after being struck by a speeding car while running and training for her freshman year of cross-country. Katie is the daughter of Norm and Patty DeRosa and the sister of brothers Matt and Chris, and her beloved sister Emily. Katie always ran hard. Of course, Katie always gave her “all” in everything she did. Katie was an honor student, an accomplished violinist, an award winning writer, a distinguished and recognized runner, and most importantly, Katie was a kind and loving daughter, sister, grandchild, cousin, niece, godchild, friend, neighbor, citizen, budding humorist, and spiritual being. Katie was also an organ donor. Katie gave the gift of life by donating six organs and gave renewed life to five people. It has been a source of peace for us knowing that Katie has made a difference in the lives of five families. Written by Carol Payto (Katie’s aunt)
