Praying for the family during this difficult time. Ms. Katina was wonderful to work with and will be greatly missed.
I worked with Katina at PCHU several years ago. Katina worked hard and was very dedicated to the clients she served. She had a great sense of humor and made work fun. Katina's family will be in my thoughts and prayers during these difficult times.
I worked with Katina for 2 years. She always had a smile for everyone. I know the staff at Pulaski Central Health unit and all of her family are going to miss her greatly. I know I will miss her smiling face when I visit Pulaski Central.
Katina was wonderful to work with at ADH. She was great with clients and knew just what to do. She had a wonderful sense of humor. Even though her time on earth was short she will be forever with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Katina was the same everyday I saw her sweet, kind and full of laughter even if she wasn't feeling well. Katina will definitely be missed..
Katina was a joy to work with at ADH. Prayers for her family.
My sincere condolences to the family. May God comfort you at this time.
May God bless you all at this difficult time. God went to the flower garden for flowers to completd his centerpiece bouquet and He only wanted the best, the flowers that were ready to be picked and He chose Tina because she was ready. She is now resting in His arms and His bouquet is complete. Praying for strength and comfort. I am here anytime you need me.

The former things have passed away.†Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers.
