Over a year has passed, yet it seems like yesterday. I didn't see you much over the years, so I am so glad we met up and sad we couldn't go on the little shopping trips we had planned. I wish we had done it when we had the chance but we always think we have all the time in the world, and sadly you didn't. I really missed our long Christmas cards where we would write to each other about this and that. It shows what an amazing person you were, that you are missed so much, and I can't imagine the pain your family and loved ones must be going through. God bless.

So sad the loss of my dear friend of over 50 years. I will miss her dearly. despite all her illnesses her resolve never left her may she now be at peace xxx

I worked with Karen for 6 years at the nursery 30 years ago and we recently met up. Despite having been through various serious illnesses over the years I was struck by how positive she stayed, always focusing on what she could do, not anything she couldn't. She was always kind and would help anyone and she hadn't changed a bit. She taught me a lot about been a nursery nurse and she was one of the best. God bless xx
