Karen Marie Dunning

Karen was a classmate of mine in High School. Though it has been more than 50 years, I remember her face and seeing her in the halls of our school. I don't remember particular classes with her though I am grateful for the work she did on the yearbook committee. I didn't know at the time, but she had a gift for words and was a beautiful person besides. I just learned of her passing recently from my High School Alumni page (I live in California). I was lucky to know her, though it was just...

Karen had a beautiful sweet spirit. I enjoyed machine quilting several of her beautiful quilts. She will be missed but her love will be with her family. She touched my heart with a special card once. I did not know about her writing.

It was at a family shower when I first met Karen. I will always remember just watching her and was taken with how very pretty she was. We were sitting next to each other and it was such a privilege to get to know this pretty young lady. (Karen is 10+ years younger than me.) At that first meeting through conversation I could see she was not only pretty, she was indeed an intelligent beautiful person with poise and grace. These traits were with her all the years I have known her. Karen...

Karen was a wonderful sister-in-law. Welcoming and loving every time I darkened her doorstep. I will miss our late night talks in the kitchen after everyone else had retired. Rest easy, Dear Karen, we have the watch. God´s love to Kale and Keegan and their families.

Karen had the biggest smile. Always supper friendly, and we loved to see her come to our hair salon, in Battle Ground, Salon 402
