I worked with Karen at the old NAU Fronske Health Center and at the new Campus Health Services. She was our resident cardiopulmonary instructor and made sure that all patient care staff stayed up to date with instruction and practice in CPR. She also taught at Coconino Community College.
She was a great humorist, finding humor even in CPR.
Karen was a. Delightful person to work with and I will always remember her. She enjoyed teaching patients and staff.
