Self Enhancement, Inc. and sends its sincere condolences to Karolyn's family. She was a champion and supporter of SEI's mission serving several years on the Board of Directors. Karolyn's kindness, warmth and smile will be missed.

Karolyn Neupert Gordon was a bright light that lit up every room she entered. Brilliant in her thinking and a heart larger than life. I have known and admired Karolyn for over 50 years. My first job in PPS was enhanced by Karolyn and her late husband Karl and daughters Karla and Kristin. I will never forget the impact they had on my early career. My life today has pieces of what this family shared with me back then. I'm forever grateful. Karolyn you are missed. Much Love-

Karolyn was literally one of the most kind and understanding people I have ever met. My time, getting know her over 2.5yrs of working together, was a true blessing. I only said "no" to her once, and that was one of the hardest decisions I ever had to make but in true Karolyn fashion, she allowed me to feel better about and maintained that respect. I will never forget my interactions with her and the friendship she showed me. May God rest her soul.

I met Karolyn when I worked in sales at Nordstrom. Karolyn was always kind, beautiful and very gracious. She had style and it was always a pleasure to see her. A treasured person gone much too soon. Sending prayers and heartfelt condolences to her family.

I will never forget Karolyn´s beautiful style. Every spring we painted her nails a beautiful coral and every fall a gorgeous deep cherry red (that she knew Barry would love). We did that year after year. I always looked forward to seeing her every week. I miss her so much but will never forget how special she was and how much she added to my life.
