I met Karen a few times at her sister's house. She seemed to be a wonderful person. I would like to offer condolences to Karen's family, including our good friends, Vanessa and Martyn. I am so sorry for your loss.

My prayers and sympathies go to Karen's husband and family...We met last year as I babysit my grandchildren who are neighbors living across the street...she was a kind and generous person sharing tomatoes other vegetables and many smiles ✝...

Lovely person. The world is a darker place with her gone.

I worked with Karen at Citizens Bank. Karen was an intelligent hardworking coworker. I highly valued her friendship and dedication. My prayers are with her family and friends.

I will cherish the fond memories of Aunt Karen. She was such a beautiful, fun loving person. We will miss her dearly ♥

Karen was like a sister that I never had and we became best friends and worked together and I will miss her dearly. We talked daily as I checked on her. Rest in peace and no more suffering.
