To the family of Karen,
Please accept my heartfelt sympathy for the loss of dear Karen. She blessed so many with laughter and smiles, and her gentle spirit touched many. Please know that you are not alone, and that you and she are kept in thought and prayer each day.
God's garden surely is more beautiful now with Karen in it. He wrapped His arms around her and whispered, "Come to Me", and gave her rest, peace, and comfort. She is safe in our Lord's arms now, free of all pain & suffering, singing the song of her heart.
God Bless & comfort you all.
With Faith & Love,
Mrs Turdle
