Katie was born November 23, 1987, to Sherry Lynnette Eaves and Charles “Terry” Thomas in Pulaski County, Arkansas. She was a 2006 graduate of Louisville High School.

She is also survived by her father and step-mother Charles “Terry” and Cheryl Thomas of Louisville; and her grandparents Glenda Thomas also of Louisville; and Gilbert and Annette Eaves of Macon. Katie also leaves behind her siblings: Brandy Fuller and husband Robby; Megan Polatsidis; Jordon Oswald; Matthew Meyer; Maria Sventek and husband Drew; and Jimmy Polatsidis.

Katie had an abundance of love and faith, and in everyone she met. She enjoyed singing, teaching, road trips, going to the beach and hanging out with her children, who were her pride and joy.
Katie’s smile was a joy to behold and it's something we will never be able to replicate and will forever miss. We thank the Lord that her mom, Sherry Polatsidis, her step-father John Polatsidis and her Pa, Charles Thomas are with her. “A smile is a wish your heart makes” and we wish your freckle-faced smile was here.
