Brian and family, I am so sorry to hear of Karen's passing. For the short time I knew, I always found her delightful and funny. From the moment I met her, she embraced me straight away into the gathering of the book club even though I didn't read one single book! Brian may your wonderful memories that you and Karen made together bring you everlasting comfort. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
