Kaitlyn Mae Michael Warne, daughter of Matthew and Heather (Buchholz) Warne, was born September 13, 2012. In Kaitlyn’s short life she made a big impact on many people’s lives. She loved life and was full of life, and was a bit of a spitfire. Some say she knew what she wanted and some would say she was stubborn. With all the medical treatments she was not afraid of anything. She was a very smart little girl and she did everything early. She walked at 10 months, her teeth came in early, and began talking at an early age.
She loved her brother and sister, loved to greet her parents at the door, and really loved seeing her grandparents. She enjoyed rides in the car and walks by the pond. Definitely loved to listen to music.
Kaitlyn really liked her animals and liked Mini Mouse. She really liked kittens even though she did not have one.
Grateful for having shared her life are her parents, Matthew and Heather Warne, and sister, Meredith and brother, Brenden, Humboldt, SD; grandparents, Wayne and Nancy Warne, Dallas, TX, and Brian and Cindy Buchholz, Bancroft, NE; great grandmothers, Connie Mitchell, and Maxine Buchholz, both of Bancroft, NE; her Aunts and Uncles, Angie (Eric) Struck, Sioux Falls, SD, Travis (Jody) Buchholz, Bancroft, NE, Tim (Nargis) Buchholz, Omaha, NE, Leslie (Matt) Guzinski, Omaha, NE, Leah Warne, Dallas, TX, Stephen (Megan) Warne, New Braunfels, TX; and several cousins, and other relatives, and a host of family friends.
