Karol will be missed. Bobby and family, we are so sorry for your loss. Ron, Leta and family

I worked with Karyl at the Psychology Department. What a friendly and helpful lady. I will always remember her cheerful laughter and the mischievous twinkle in her eyes. She came to mind just a couple days ago when I saw that Taylor Hicks has a new album - she was his number one fan! My sympathy for your loss.

She was the kindest! To her family, please receive my sympathies. I worked with Karyl in the psychology department and have the fondest memories. May she rest in peace.

My husband worked in the psychology department and thought the world of Karyl. She was always so pleasant when I stopped in at the office. I'm sure she will be missed by many and I am truly sorry for your loss.
