I am so sorry I am so late with my expression of sympathy.

I am Uncle Edward Adler's daughter. I live in Charlotte, NC. Several years ago, at Aunt Angie's suggestion, she indicated that Lori lived in Charlotte and would I look her up and visit. Dad (Uncle Edward) and I had a wonderful visit with Lori and family. And although we had never met, we felt like family from the time Lori opened her front door.

I believe this is a testament to Karen's warmth. While growing up, Karen was the "older pretty" cousin that would show up from the "big city" to little Pulaski. She always reminded me of what Grandma Adler must have been like when she was young. A mischievious smile and chuckle and a great listener.

Blessings to you all.

Dear Family,

My memories of Auntie Karie are always associated with laughter and happiness. Whether it was singing happy birthday to her 'Kevie', cooking (Mom always said how neat it was to see Auntie Karie working her magic in the kitchen) or describing in wonderful detail the lovely weather she was enjoying :)

I miss her very much - yet even as I write this I am reminded of her infectious smile and her uncanny ability to make everyone she came in contact with feel special.

Love,
Kevin 'Kevie' Zak

Dear Family,
Just as Karen's photos reflect, she always lived life with a smile no matter what difficulties she faced. I feel very blessed to have known her and shared family events with her over the years.

She loved her children and grandchildren so much. Her fond memories will live on with each of you.

Karen was a loving and brave lady.

With Sincere Sympathies,
Mary Brown

Dear Family,
I will miss Auntie Karie very much. 1,000 miles distance couldn't keep her from being a part of my life. She called often to give her support and advice to me whenever life has brought trials and, as my Dad alluded to, I always felt better about things after talking to her. She also liked to call me on New Year's Day to tell me she was sitting by the pool or on the patio, while I was in Wisconsin, watching ice crystals form on the windows:-) She had a great sense of humor!! I am comforted in the thought of her being in a better place and in the memories of a person whom I think defines what it means to be compassionate.
Love,
Gregg

My heart goes out to all of you in your time of grief. Lean on each other in the days to come as you work through missing your mum.

I was so glad to be able to spend the time with you all and to be able to say good bye to Aunty Karie. She has a special place in my heart and I will miss her more than I can say.

I love you all.

Mum,
I am going to miss you. I do know that you are now in a better place and out of all the pain that you have been in for the last year and a half.
You have always protected your children. When the doctor told you that hospice was going to come to the house, I told you now it is time for us to protect you! I was told by hospice that a person will pass on the same way they have lived their life.
I believe this since you would not pass until that morning of January 13 that all us (your children) gathered around you and told you that you have done everything that you could to prepare us for this and that you should go be with Mike, Aunt Jeri and Grandpa and out of the pain that you went through for the last year and a half.
As we left the room to talk to one of the nurses, the other nurse that stayed with you told you that if you do not want to pass in front of your children that now would be the time. The nurse told us that you took a deep breath so she called us back into the room. We watched you take your last breath. It was beautiful to witness you going home to heaven.
I was not sure you could hear us talk to you as you laid there with your eyes closed for the last week, but now I am convinced that you could hear every word and know how much we love you and miss you.
You have touched everyone’s life that God has put in your path. I love you and I am at peace that you are in a better place now.
Love,
Lisa

I was so sorry to learn of Karen's death. Please accept my deepest sympathies. When I moved to Houston, I stayed with Karen and Bob on several occasions.......she taught me how to prepare broiled Halibut! Your mom was such a great cook and wonderful hostess......she always made me feel welcome to be in her home. She will surely be missed. Warmest regards, Betty Puryear
