Dear Mr. Freed and family to Mrs. Karen Freed.

Please accept my personal condolences for your loss of Countess Karen Jo Freed. She was a beautifully faceted lady I never had the pleasure of meeting but had the pleasure of providing the medication for her health and comfort while she resides at Parmly on the Lake. I also had the honor of working with Karen´s dear husband John Freed. Please know I am here with you during this time of sorrow and know I will be thinking and praying for your friends and family while you congregate and celebrate the life of Karen Jo Freed.

Sincerely,

Roslyn Cross

From John's first cousisn, Denise, and husband, Rick Lindseth, who "found" John and Karen in our adult years (better late than never). We have enjoyed and appreciated the memories we made together at long last, and we will easily remember Karen's warm smile and the gentle sound of her laughter. She's "gone on ahead" , yet so much of her is still here in our hearts.

I knew Karen when she was married to my Uncle David my dad's brother. She was always so caring and friendly always thinking of others. My husband Bob and I enjoyed visiting with her and John when they wintered in Dade City, FL not far from our home in Brooksville, FL. Karen will be missed. I was fortunate to have been a part of her family.

Dick and I wish to extend our heartfelt sympathies to John and the entire extended family.

It was such a joy to have Karen singing praises to God in our TR Celebration Choir and on Music Sunday to have her dance with praise with the liturgical dance team. I was honored to have been a part of her Bible Study that she led too.

She had a smile that would light up any room and we will miss her. It gives comfort to know we will see her again.

To my beautiful sweetheart Countess Karen - we had 22 wonderful years together and you loved me despite my faults and mistakes. Thank you from the depth of my heart. At high tide or low tide, I'll always be at your side. I look forward to continuing our love in Heaven. Until then, find some mini donuts and have a blessed time with our Lord.
