Seattle, Washington
Karin Ylenni passed away in Seattle, Washington. The obituary was featured in The Seattle Times on March 31, 2012.
I can't even begin to put to words how much you and your love meant to me Karin. You are the mother I always wanted and the best friend a boy could have needed. Thirty five years ago, what happened to that farm, goats and cookies??? Always in my heart my love.

Aunt Karin was always fun to visit with. She was unique all the way to her voice. She was incredibly sweet to me and could always put a smile on your face with her humor. Thank you for the laughs and warm memories, you will be missed.

Oh were do I began,,, I met Melissa when we were in middle school, then she took me home to her house and that is where I met Karen! Karen welcomed me as part of the family, and there I have remained as part of the family.. she always called me the "weekend kid " cause I was there every weekend. And she would have Melissa share her allowance with me. Witch I think kinda would upset Melissa back then .. haha
I have a daughter and she would call Karen grandma ma too..
She will be...

Karin welcomed me into the extended family and I appreciated her bluntness and honesty. I always knew she was a real person. The occasional visits and meals at their house was hospitable with lively conversation. May you all find comfort remembering her life and feel the freedom to grieve her death.

I was blessed to know Karin for several years and be a part of her family. As a few have mentioned here, I always enjoyed her humor. I also miss her "quirks". The paper all HAD o be the same on the presents under the tree and only certain types of ornaments on the tree as well. :) She will be missed but never forgotten. All my love to the family.

Karin was a truly funny person and, after knowing her for nearly 30 years, I will miss her deeply.
Karin, I will never forget Shadowgate.
