To Karen's family,
Karen's heart for the Lord, her courageous battle with cancer, her love for her family were all such wonderful inspirations! I will miss her positive attitude and her beautiful smile. Basketball games won't be the same with Aunt KK. Much love to you all, you will be in my prayers.

I am looking at a picture of Karen remembering the fun we had together during our school years. There were trips to the island,football games,dances and of course boys. I will always remember her laugh, beautiful eyes, kind heart and smile! I am so sorry we had lost touch over the years and our only contact had been over the phone. We always said we would get together again and I do believe we will. My heart and prayers are with the Rasmussen/Isaacson family. I love you Karen you will always be in my heart.

To the Rasmussen Family -
I was saddened to hear of Karen's passing. I always loved seeing her at all of the basketball games and "catching up" with her and Caroline. Your family is in my prayers.
