The TRANScendent community is grappling with the heartbreaking loss of Krystina Pine, affectionately known as Katia Evergreen. Known for her warmth, compassion, and unwavering dedication to others, Katia’s passing has left a profound void among those who knew and loved her.
Friends and fellow community members remembered Katia as a tireless supporter and shining presence. One close friend shared, “She was always the first to step up, whether it was performing at a benefit show or helping raise funds for our trans community. Her energy and generosity were unmatched.”
In her final days, Katia was eagerly planning a country-themed benefit show, aiming to contribute to her own journey toward gender-affirming surgery. Her enthusiasm for helping others, even while navigating her personal path, exemplified the boundless heart she shared with everyone around her.
Katia will be remembered as a radiant soul and a pillar of service within TRANScendent. Her spirit, often celebrated through her music and community efforts, earned her the affectionate title of the group’s “favorite Country Diva.” Though she is gone, her legacy of kindness, joy, and dedication will continue to inspire those she touched.
