Born on August 23, 1992, in Union Town, Pennsylvania, Kaitlin was the cherished daughter of Mark Alan Miles and Marta J. McCombs. She spent her childhood in Frederick Town, PA, where she built strong friendships and developed the warmth and determination that defined her life.
A 2010 graduate of Harmony High School, Kaitlin was remembered by classmates and teachers as a bright and compassionate student who blended determination with generosity.
