BJ and all your family,
My deepest sympathy on the loss of your beautiful Karren. She was my very BEST friend in high school and we had kept in touch throughout the many years since. It is so hard to believe she is gone but take solace in the fact she is with her beloved Bob whom she missed so much. Happy Birthday Karren and rest in peace. You will be greatly missed by all who had the pleasure of your friendship.

Karen was a friend from grade school on. She was kind and above all sweet to everyone.
I took her to our very first dance "Saddie Hawkins"
We were both fumble feet but had a great time.
