Bud and family,
We were saddened to learn of Karen's passing. She was an absolutely lovely woman, so gracious and kind, prior to her illness. She couldn't have been a better friend. We're glad she is now pain-free and at rest with her Lord. We will miss her and will think of her often. God bless all of you.

Though we only knew Karen for a short time, she and 'Bud' welcomed us to Eden Prairie, helping us to settle quickly, and we have fond memories of times we shared with them both.
Our thoughts are with 'Bud', Craig & Scott, at this difficult time.
