I will always cherish my memories from college and our TriSigma reunions. With much love and condolences to Gary and the family

We were Wagner cousins and just renewed our friendship the last few years. I enjoyed your lively beach pictures and learning about your family. I will never forget our time together when we were much younger. Rest in peace, dear cousin....

Sweet Karen, cannot believe you are gone. We were quite close for awhile & shared many fun things & a few secrets b/t us!! You will be missed, Love. I wish I had known you were ill. God Bless your family as they adjust to this huge loss!

Karen and I taught together for 30 years at Venice Heights Elementary in Sandusky. She was also my DKG sister and she was part of our Venice Retirees Lunch group. We shared many memories together at school..Olympic Days and Sock Hop parties. I also remember many pool parties at the house in Village Court and being together for Murder Mysteries years ago. May Gary and the rest of the family hold onto all those memories of Karen until they are reconnected at their Heavenly Home. Amen Linda...
