Not sure what to say?

Thinking about my Spiritual Friend tonight. My eternal friend

Thinking about sitting in the middle of that Seatlle City block at 3 AM, and speaking about things that will remain in the atoms that move in and through SCCA.

Life
and death

And life.
A friend closer than a sister.
Forever.


Dear Rit and family:
We didn't know about Karen and the battle she faced and was very saddend to hear of your great loss. Karen was a very warm and kind person with such a radiant glow about her. You all are in our thoughts and prayers. What a reunion we all will have in heaven. God bless you and may you feel God's comfort and strength through this difficult time. We love you!!

We never know in life who we touch and who we leave lasting impressions on. This family, and Karen in particular, have left many footprints in this world. My life, and I'm sure many others, were touched by her and bear the imprint of her kindness. My heartfelt condolences goes out to this amazing family.

I had the honor of working with Karen for a brief time. I just want to attest to her kindness, wonderful smile, and willingness to offer support to everyone around her. I was 19 and she was so motherly and kind to me from the get go. I know her children know that she loves them...there's no doubt... but I hope they also know how much she talked about them! She was always so very proud of them, you could see it in every thing she did.

Ritt & Aaron,
Sue and I talked about attending today; but wanted to give space to your family since we did not know Karen directly.
I am sure it was standing room only.
But that did not take away at all our grievance for your loss of Karen.
I have gotten to know you, Aaron and others over the last few years.
Sue and I share in your loss.
The obit was so well written, it told me much about your family today, and as pointed out, tomorrow on the other side.
As I approach...

Karen was a wonderful inspiration to all of us and will be missed.

"The transition from life here is only the beginning of an endless career of adventure, an everlasting life of anticipation, and an eternal voyage of discovery..."

Life is full of timely segments. When our children were young, I had the privelege of meeting Karen and I'll always remember a beautiful women absolutely full to the brim with joyful life! What is awesome is that she left such a legacy behind imprinted, not only in her family, but in the lives of all she touched. May the Lord, whom she loved, pour His peace and love upon the entire family during this separation time until you meet again.

My heart and prayers are with you and your family.

Dale & Lee: Sorry to hear about your Daughter, our thoughts and prayers are with you and Family.
