My thoughts and prayers go to the Merkl family. Karen was the most wonderful, loving, thoughtful, funny, stubborn woman friend I ever had! She will be missed greatly. I had the wonderful pleasure to work with her at Cudahy Kmart in the jewelry department. What i am going to miss the most is just seeing that beautiful smile. Love you Karen and I am priviledged to say there is a beautiful angel watching over us.

I have such great memories of Karen. She was fun, silly and always made us laugh. We spent a lot of fun times with her and her family when I was little. I am so glad I was able to see her a few weeks back when she was in the hospital. She was still saying funny things then. She will definitely be missed, but it's good to know we will all see her again someday. I will keep you all in my thoughts in prayers. Christine (Esaman) Butt

Hi, I would like to extend my deepest sympathy and condolences to those who were family members and friends of Karen. I worked with Karen at the Kmart on South Chase Ave in Milwaukee for a little over a year back in 2001. Karen's presence made a positive impact on me and her general character is one I will not soon forget. When I remember our conversations or interactions I always remember 2 things: her voice and her laugh. I will always remember Karen Merkl as being lively, spunky, and entertaining. May she rest in peace.

My deepest sympathy goes out to Todd, Troy, Tammy and Mr. Merkl. I will always remember Mrs. Merkl as the small, cute and funny lady she was!
God Bless,
