Not sure what to say?

Hi Bruce,
Sorry about the loss of your mother. I remember her telling me she had a son my age back when I was a Roosevelt Elementary student, a year or two before I would meet you in Little League or Keith Walter's house. You're fortunate to have had such a woman as your mother. Peace to you and your family.

I have so many fond memories of (Mike and) Karen. Both were always so gracious and kind. I babysat for Bruce, and then was in youth t church when they were leaders. They were both excellent Christian examples. The family is in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Bruce and Family, i just watched the graveside service for your Mom. I am so sorry for your loss of your Mother and Grandmother. She was my aunt, younger sister to my father. I loved her very much and appreciated her for taking care of the four of us Ploegstra kids when our mother had a broken leg, also when my parents divorced. It was always fun to go to Aunt Karen's and Uncle Mikes house. I know that she loved us as we did her. She was a good and faithful lady and we will all miss...

May God grant you His peace in the loss of Karen. We had great fun with her and Mike in the "annual" cousin fall camping and will remember her fondly.

So sorry for ur loss and my deepest sympathy to the whole family may God bless u with his love thru this time and time to come just remember that God will c u thru this and comfort you

My deepest sympathy to the family. I have had the pleasure of knowing and loving both of your parents for many years. My prayers are with you.

Bruce I am so sorry for your loss. She will live on in your heart. You have the assurance that you see her again. The Christian upbringing she gave you goes on in you children and the many boys you have lead in Cadets. I am sure your Mom was proud of you. For the Christian Man you have become.

Dear Bruce, Dawn and Family, Please accept my condolences in the death of your precious mother (in-law). I now live in Toronto, but I share fond memories of visiting with your dad and mom during the 70's and 80's and even one get-together in the 90's. May the peace of God, our comforter surround you all.
Mary Gerritsma, Toronto

The world has lost some sunshine, laughter and kindness with Karen's passing. She will be sorely missed.
