WA - Katherine Rose Marie Hendrix fell asleep in the Lord on November 18, 2025, at the age of 15.

Born on June 4, 2010, in Kirkland, Washington, Katherine was a cherished daughter, beloved sister, and friend to many whose lives she touched with her spirited nature.

Katherine's journey on earth was a testament to her courage and strength as she faced osteosarcoma with the heart of a lioness. She took control of as much of the battle as possible, determined not to miss out on anything.

She passed away peacefully at home in Woodinville, Washington, surrounded by her parents, Chris and Therese, and her older siblings—Xavier, Michael, Marie, Basil, and Angela—while they prayed the Rosary together, enveloping her with love and prayers for her journey to her heavenly Father.

Katherine was blessed with a vibrant and engaging personality. She was the hub of the family and drew the love and admiration of countless aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.

Katherine cherished her Traditional Catholic Faith—its beauty, clarity, and truths—which equipped her with the armor and tools she needed to endure the intense trials and crosses of her battle with cancer.

We are forever grateful to everyone who loved and helped us raise and care for Katherine. Above all, we give honor and glory to Almighty God for the priceless gift of this beautiful soul, whom He called home to eternity before we felt ready to let her go.

Requiescat in pace, our dearest Katherine, until we meet again in the glory of God's kingdom!

With endless love,

Dad, Mom, Xavier, Michael, Marie, Basil, and Angela
