Amy, Anna, Kathy & Lee,
My deepest condolences to you all on the loss of your mother and sister. The last time I saw Karen was with Amy and the baby at the Chinese Buffet and that was such a long time ago. I had no idea of the couragous fight she was engaged in. I always admired the way she was able to raise her 2 beautiful daughters as a single Mom - she did an awesome job!!! Her endless energy and spirit will be deeply missed.
Blessings on her and all the loved ones she left...

I am shocked and deeply saddened to read of Karen's passing. I knew her years ago at A&T - we had some very good times. I hadn't seen her in years and certainly did not know of her battle with this horrid disease. I am so terribly sorry for your loss; but I rejoice in her life and the fun and joy she brought to others. God bless - my prayers are with you all. My sincere condolences.

I have known Karen since highschool and have very fond memories of the times that we shared through the years. The last few years were tough ones for you dear friend and you only let a few get close. Just know that you were loved as a friend and I will remember you always. My prayers and sympathy are with your family as you are now peaceful with the Lord after your long battle. Peace!

Anna, my sincere sympathy to you and your family. I know that you will miss you mother very much. My prayers are with you.

My heartfelt condolences on the loss of your sister and mother. Karen and I went to high school together. I last saw her at Judy Dousis house when a bunch of us girls got together. I often talked to her on the phone at the Waterford Town hall. Sorry to hear she lost her battle.

To be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord.
