Our sincere condolences go out to Katie’s  family and friends.

“We are so so very sad to learn that we have lost one of the brightest lights I have ever known. Katie Zullo, we will miss your beautiful smile and witty life anecdotes. Go peacefully as you find that next great wave. You are always with us, sweet sweet girl. Much love to you.” ~ Tracey
Katie, a competitive, avid surfer and student at the University of Rhode Island was special to us here at TraceyC-Media as she was a dear friend, teammate and mentor to my son, Patrick.
