With loving memory and with deep sorrow we share the loss of our dearest and most loved KateLynn (Katie) Grace Weingartner who was killed in a tragic accident on June 9, 2017, in Reno, NV. She is survived by her mother Kimberly C. Weingartner and her mother’s boyfriend, Ray Myers of Rayco Drywall of Reno, NV and his children Tyler Herndon of Reno, NV, Dr. Logan Myers (Dr. Danyelle Myers) of Las Vegas, NV, Spencer Rae Myers R.N. of San Diego, CA, her maternal grandparents Steve and Earleen Fronckowiak of Brookings, OR, her aunt Brenda Wagner of Chico, Ca along with her two children Jacey Wagner of Utah and Chase Wagner of Chico, CA, her aunt Stephanie Wagenman of Oceanside, CA and her daughter Jessica Wagenman of Reno, NV, her uncle Ryan Webb of Red Bluff, CA. She is also survived by numerous cousins, aunts and uncles and older siblings of the Weingartner Family.
Katie was predeceased by her father Dr. Roger Weingartner and her paternal grandmother Evelyn Grace Weingartner, both of Santa Rosa, CA.
Before moving to Reno, NV after 8th grade graduation, Katie resided in Santa Rosa, CA with her mother and attended school in the Gravenstein School District in Sebastopol, CA. Katie enjoyed many extra activities but her love of life was with family and friends. Friends who instantly became family. A family of many. Her teacher spoke so eloquently of her at her 8th grade graduation with words of encouragement for all to be inspired by Katie. She lives in the hearts of many and touched their lives with her infectious smile.
