Thinking of you my friend

Steve and family, Our prayers are with you. Tony and Kathy Gastaldo

Steve, AJ, and Steph, we just heard about Karen´s passing, and we send our condolences to you. We will always remember her quick and beautiful smile, her energy, and her friendliness. We pray for peace and comfort for each of you. With sympathy and love, Tom and Linda Riley

Hi Karen, I just heard today. I got to hear you sing a lot and make great music. See you on the other side! John Payne

Steve, AJ, Steph, We send our deepest sympathy for your loss. We have fond memories of Karen and Steph during PNHS musical times. Karen always had a big energetic presence during those years with volunteering and helping those like myself figure out what it meant to be a theater parent. Wishing you all peace during this difficult time. Kim, Scott, Sam Melvin

A Sweetheart We went to school together; she was always a kind, gentle person-it came naturally to her. I´m thankful that Dale was also a coworker, that he met this angel too We pray for all her loved ones: That you feel God´s presence in your path because He cares for you

I will forever be grateful for having Karen in my life. From working with her to our get togethers, she was a true pleasure to be around. While giving me updates of her family I could see in her eyes and hear in her voice the love she had for Steve, AJ and Steph. I will forever treasure the friendship Karen gave me. May God give us all the strength, comfort and peace we are in need of now.

I have no words. May your faith sustain each of you at this time and in the days ahead.

Karen had an infectious smile, and she could light up a room when she entered. We were in LKS sorority together in the 80's. After the stress of exam week, we would get together at one of the pharmacy fraternities and dance and party. Karen would be in the middle of the dance floor, the life of the party, smiling and enjoying herself. She was a beautiful, kind, and generous friend. She will be missed.

My sincere condolences to Steve and the kids. I hope your fond memories of Karen...
