Katie Drake Speer

My dear sister, We talked about this day and but I never expected it this soon. You were truly God sent. You touched so many lives in ways that can never be explained. You are the epitome of how God wants us to live our lives. If people didn't see that, they really didn't know you at all you gave me strength when I didn't have any left. Whether it was the word that you said or just that infectious laugh that you had. You will truly be missed by all. Katie sent this to me when I was grieving my sister and mom. I hope it brings comfort to her family and friends: "I know without a doubt you are going to walk through this but it will be hard but never forget God's Grace is sufficient to carry you through. In your weakness his strength will be made perfect just lean into him he got you. Nothing but his love can give you the comfort you need. Believe in the goodness of the Lord just lean into him. Love you Katie" Open phenomenal God-fearing woman you will truly be missed.🙏🏽 Your Fellow Purple Passion Lady, Dianna Ruff
