SARATOGA SPRINGS — Katie-Lynn N. Scheidt, 30, passed away suddenly on Thursday, Oct. 2.
Katie-Lynn was born in Saratoga Hospital on April 8, 1984, one month early with a birth weight of 2 pounds, 13 ounces. Always the fighter, she grew into a beautiful, intelligent, energetic and caring young woman.
