  1. Hi, Archie — Our sincere sympathy on the loss of your Mom. She obviously had quite a life, and well be praying for the repose of her soul and for you and Jean, and for all affected by her passing.

  2. May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories together as you look back on a long and wonderful life

  3. Archie and Family – My sincerest sympathy. I will always treasure the brief but intimate conversation I had with your Mom right before the Newman dinner honoring you this past year. She was so proud of you and ALL her family and I was immediately struck by her deep love and graceful humility as she thanked me for my reaching out. Having recently lost my Mom, I know how incredibly meaningful and spiritual this part of the journey can be. May the blessed angels and saints provide you all comfort during this special time.

  4. Toni and family, I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Paula

  5. Dear friends Jim and Debbie: Our deepest sympathy. We are keeping you and the Macias family in our thoughts and prayers.

  6. Richard and Archie, may you take comfort in knowing your mom is with the angels in heaven. Know that you and all your family are in my prayers.

  7. You Lived your life to the fullest, raising (along with Frank) a wonderful family , always giving glory to our God and being a good and faithful servant. You meant a lot to me from a young age , and became to be a most favored Aunt . Rest in the glory of the Lord, my dear Aunt Katie

  8. Dear Macias Family,
    Please accept our deepest condolences. We are keeping all of you in our prayers. May Aunt Katie rest in peace with Our Lord Jesus Christ!
    God bless.

  9. So very sorry to hear of your loss, such a sweet, sweet woman. Know that you are in our prayers.

  10. It is sad to know my favorite aunt is gone but I rejoice that she is reunited with my Uncke Frank and her siblings, including my daddy, Donnie and of course my mom, Dovie and above all, her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! My fondest memories growing up were those summers spent in Wichita at the Macias home. Aunt Katie made me so many clothes between sewing and knitting , I dont think I wore the same outfit to school for weeks on end. I look forward with peaceful assurance that we will all one day get to sit at the table and laugh at the countless stories shared st the Young Family Reunions. Rest In Peace Aunt Katie, I always miss you.

  11. Our deepest thoughts & prayers on the passing of Mrs Macias. We remember her with great fondness. Maxine assisted her with her genealogy, and the Price & Ulrich kids all knew her children from ball games and school. May the memories that linger be those of joy and laughter.

  12. When I think of Aunt Katie, I always remember her hilarious sense of humor and skydiving when she turned 80. But most of all I remember her quiet and loving kindness. Im sad she is gone now but rejoicing that she is free, perfect in every way, and greeting Uncle Frank and all our loved ones who preceded her in Heaven. Love to all my Macias cousins and families.

  13. What a wonderful Aunt & Friend. We will always cherish the memories of all our family get-togethers. Our prayers and thoughts are with all of you at this time. We will miss her greatly but we know she is with the family in Heaven and we will see her again some day . Love you all. Rick & Beverly McCombs & Family Rog & Kathy McCombs & Family

  14. The world has lost a dear and sweet lady. My Mom, Mary Ellen Ramstack, always spoke very fondly and kindly about Katie.Mom considered her a special friend and I know they enjoyed their time together. They are together again in Gods loving care. Katie was such a thoughtful and gracious person, and I am privileged have known her.She is now enjoying Gods promise of eternal life. Remember her love and laughter. She is safe and happy. May God give her family His love and care during this difficult time of loss.
