Love you
Miss you
Rest In Peace

Karen, my beautiful, intelligent, funny sister-in-law of almost 40 years. This wave of grief relentless, merciless, and endless has hit us hard. I'm devastated, hurt, and shattered not only for you but for your amazing sister Laurie and your Dad. Please understand your are my friend and I just want to thank you for everything you have done for the family for many many years. You are the most giving person I have ever had the pleasure to know and you never expected anything in return. On behalf of everyone that ever met you, thank you! Love Mike

My deepest condolences to you Mr Edelist, Laurie and Karen's friends and family. So many fun memories of time spent at the Edelist household when we were young. Dancing with Karen to Burton Cummings and then likely annoying her as her younger sisters friend the next minute. Mrs. Edelist was.always a great sounding board. Two wonderful people who are missed. Sending much love in your healing process.

My heartfelt condolences to Dr. Edelist, Laurie and the rest of Karen's family. Karen was truly a force of nature and I am so grateful to have had her in my life. Karen and I were best friends from junior high right through to the end of high school. We went to school together; we played together; and, we even worked the same part time job together. She was patient with me when I didn't understand the math problem that came so easily to her, or when I had to ski the long slow way down the slope as she raced the black diamond runs. Karen led the way for our many adventures in her trusty blue Gremlin. I was indeed fortunate to have Karen as my friend and she will always have a place in my heart.

Auntie Karen I am so sad that you are gone. You were truly one of a kind. The last time I visited you a couple of months ago you spent the entire day with Addie and that filled my heart. She immediately took to you and did not leave your side the entire time we were there. Your caring nature made you an easy person to be drawn to. I will always remember going to your apartment as a kid and thinking that you were the coolest person ever because you lived in the big city of Toronto right beside the sky dome. You are missed by many. I hope you always knew how much you were loved.

My deepest condolences to her family and friends. Karen was one of the nicest women I've had the chance of getting to know. She was always so kind and generous.
She had one of the biggest hearts and although I didn't have the opportunity to know her nearly as long as anyone else, I feel blessed to have the memories that I do. May you be forever at peace Karen
