Katie Danielle Richins

Born in Demorest, Georgia on August 21, 2000, Katie was a life-long native of Habersham County. She was generous, compassionate, and kind. Never malice or angry. Katie would meet people and instantly make new friends, regardless if you thought you needed a friend. She was a hard worker and responsible. If someone was sick, she would instinctively become the caretaker. Katie loved music, concerts, people, and especially dogs. She was a huge fan of Harry Potter and gravitated to a world where the impossible was possible. Katie loved to give hugs since she was a little girl and there was never a limit on how many given.
