About The Riley Katheryn FoundationRiley's Story
We were thrilled to find out we were pregnant with twins in May of 2009. After a very complicated pregnancy and early bed rest, an emergency c-section was performed at 30 weeks due to fetal distress. Riley Katheryn was stillborn on Nov. 3, 2009 at 3:43pm, survived by her identical twin sister Payton Grace at 3:44pm. Riley, surrounded by loved ones, was laid to rest Nov. 9, 2009. Overwhelmed with support from our family, friends, co-workers and our community at that time, we now strive to help others through the unimaginable. —John & Katie Rohrhoff |
