Katie Lynn Waddle, infant daughter of Bryan and Sydney Waddle, died peacefully in her parent's arms on Tuesday, July 26, 2022, at the family home in Cave Springs, Arkansas.  She was born June 13, 2022, in Kansas City, Missouri.  Katie was diagnosed with a life limiting condition while in utero and lived longer than anticipated. She had an abundance of love, comfort, and peace during her life.  She also received lots of kisses and fist bumps from her big, two-year-old sister, Sadie. Her parents are comforted that Katie is with Jesus in Heaven and that one day they will see her again.

In addition to her parents and sister, Katie is survived by her grandparents, Russell and Amy Waddle of Sheridan, Arkansas, Jim and Karla Gibson of Claremore, Oklahoma, Philip Dickson of Joplin, Missouri, Alan and Sherry Bettis of Bee Branch, Arkansas; great-grandparents, Clifford and Patricia Starchman and Earl Dickson all of Joplin, Missouri; aunts and uncles, Lyndsey and Russell Locetta of Houston, Texas, Chase and Leah Snyder of Natchitoches, Louisiana; cousins, Jolee and Emma Snyder; and a great-aunt, Becca Schatz of East End, Arkansas.

A memorial service will be 11 a.m. Friday, July 29, at Lakeview Baptist Church .
