Katelynn (Kat) Gould
December 12, 2016
Katelynn (Kat) Rose Gould went to be with Jesus on December 12, 2016. She was a beautiful young lady who was born to Shawn and Tammy (Guerrero) Gould on February 21, 1997, in Chesapeake, VA.
Kat believed the best in everyone. She had a caring and giving heart, and was generous to a fault. Kat lived life to the fullest and enjoyed spending time with her family at the Blank Park Zoo.
Although her life was dramatically cut short, the love she gave and received will continue to live on forever.
Kat is survived by her parents, Shawn and Tammy Gould; siblings, Felecia Neil (Stephen) and her sister, Natasha McCurdy (Scott); Jason Gould, and Rosamae Gould; many nieces and nephews; grandparents, Jerry and Cathy Guerrero; Pamela and Jimmy Salcido; Uncle Bubba and Sabrina Guerrero; as well as her cousins and countless friends. She was preceded in death by her aunt, Vivi Matherly; great-grandmother, Rosa Mae Matherly, and great-grandfather, Joe B. Guerrero.
A celebration service in remembrance of Kat will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, December 17, 2016, at Eternity Church, 2000 NW 100th Street in Clive, IA.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Blank Park Zoo – In Memory of Katelynn Gould or Children & Families of Iowa – Domestic Violence Shelter.

Im so sorry for your loss of your dear Katelynn. May you find comfort in Gods promise of a resurrection, when we will be reunited with our loved ones who have passed away, and never be separated by death again. (John 5:28,29; Revelation 21:3,4)

Kat was such a great person. She always put others first. She was the first friend I had made when I joined the Pizza Ranch family. She always knew how to cheer me up when I was feelin down and helped when I had my knee surgery. Fly high Kat. Love you.

Tammy and family, I want to extend my sorrows and prayers for the family. I am Brooke's grandmother and got to know Katelynn when you all lived on Gloria Place. She and Brooke were at my house many times when they were younger, they were like twins. Such a bubbly child and so cute, I will always remember her as that little chubby face little girl with the cheeky smile. RIP sweetheart, GOD loves you,.
