Kaitlyn Wilkerson, Wisconsin—The community is deeply saddened by the tragic loss of Kaitlyn Wilkerson, who died by suicide yesterday, August 4th, 2024. Kaitlyn, affectionately known as Katie, had struggled with mental illness for many years, despite experiencing a period of happiness in the last two years.
Katie was about to become an aunt next month and was eagerly looking forward to meeting her new nephew. Her untimely passing has left her parents, Stephany and Mike Wilkerson, her younger brother Michael, and her two older sisters heartbroken.
Julie Waters, a family friend, has organized a GoFundMe fundraiser to help bring Kaitlyn home to Klamath Falls, OR, for her final rest. The fundraiser, titled "Help Bring Kaitlyn Wilkerson Home to Rest," has raised $100 of its $5,000 goal so far. Julie Hanson, another close friend, urged the community to donate and pray for Kaitlyn’s family during this difficult time.
The outpouring of love and support on social media is a testament to the impact Katie had on those around her. Julie Hanson wrote on Facebook, "Please donate if you can; all proceeds will go to the family to aid in bringing this sweet girl home to rest! If you can’t donate, please do the best you can do, and PRAY for her heartbroken parents, my friend Steph, and her husband Mike."
Katie’s legacy will be remembered by her family and friends, who cherish the memories they shared with her. The community’s support is a source of comfort during this heartbreaking time.
We are deeply saddened to learn of Kaitlyn Wilkerson’s passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends during this difficult time.
