Dear Jean, Jerry and Greg,
Words simply cannot express the pain of losing such a beautiful child. You folks, as well as Kara, are in our thoughts and prayers. She was a pleasure to know and although we are saddened by her leaving we know she is in a better place and watching over us all. We miss her beautiful smile.

Jean, Jerry & Greg,
It is so hard to find comforting words at a time like this, but please know that our thoughts and prayers were with you and Kara constantly and even though the Lord took her from you, she is in the arms of God and looking down with love and her plans now to protect you, as you did her. We were far from you and Kara but our love and support were always very close. We are so sorry.

we were a long way from you Kara but our prayers were always with you and always will be

Jerry, Jean and Greg - Our prayers and thoughts are with you. Although Kara was taken much too soon, she accomplished more in her short time than those who have lived three times hers. Her beginning will have no end, because of her goodness her spirit will live on in all those she touched.

With all our love,
Kathryn, Samantha
