JJ Soto and Katherine Elizabeth wrote a sympathy message

“I didn't know this wonderful kid, and my daughter usually only met her on court at tennis matches (getting closer each time to a possible win; thrilled to play her every year; acting like they'd known each other forever at every meeting). It was heart breaking when we all found out this promising girl was taken from this world--the grief was real with us, and it hurts thinking about how bad this must be for her family. You are so missed and loved by everyone who knew you, Kaitlyn. Rest well.”
