Due to current restrictions attendance to the service was limited to immediate family only. But anyone who would still like to pay their respects and contribute in some way a GoFundMe web page has been set up by friends to help Katie's family.

Dozens of people took to social media and the GoFundMe web pages to post their support and condolences for the family.

One friend described Katie 'as a beautiful, funny, helpful, hardworking young lady and I will miss her very much.'

One of her former employers said: "She was part of our family, even after she departed to start a new adventure. She lit up the office whenever she entered with her beaming smile, big heart and awful jokes (which she would laugh at before anyone else got the chance). You are an absolute angel and we will all hold you close to our hearts forever."
