EMAIL DETAILS

Thank you Patty! I would love to meet/speak with you about Maeve. She is an intelligent, passionate and articulate young lady. She would love to help make a difference for other children! She thinks visiting and meeting with you would be “cool” ; )

We will definitively follow up soon and coordinate.

Thank you and good luck traveling! ugh.

Sincerely,
Katie & Maeve

I worked with Beau during his entire tenure as Attorney General, and was the Deputy Attorney General in charge of the Family Division; I have worked with children and other vulnerable victims for 30 years. Your daughter is truly courageous. Many grown adults would not do what your daughter did.

Maeve is one incredible girl and I hope she knows that while the adults may not have listened at first they are listening now and I'm positive she gave hope to those children that were assaulted by her teacher.

It's one thing to be a fearless Goliath, quite another to be a fearless David. Bravery in the face of insurmountable odds an expectation of being dismissed is true courage. That is what it is to be truly selfless.

You are really remarkable, and I know people say things like "well I wouldn't expect less of Katie's daughter..." and that may be true, but what you did was all your own all by yourself and the consequences would have been all owned by you. The other thing Beau taught me is that being a hero isn't easy but in the end it is the most rewarding life of all. Love, Hunter
