My first memory of Karen was us crafting together. She was such an amazing woman. I miss her everyday. Love you grandma.

My dear Karen, trusted friend, faithful follower of Jesus, I will miss you so much but know that soon we will share the joys of heaven for eternity. There is now another deep crack in my heart until then. Loved our trip to Asia, raising our kids, kids musicals, trips with Jeanne, camping in Rocky Point, Thrive Retreats, but most of all just talking every day on the phone about life, kids,about nothing, but also about the deep questions of life (our worm), encouraging each other in our forward walk with Jesus. Til we see each other in heaven my sister/friend, my sister love follows you.

Our prayers go out to Rich and the kids. Karen always had lots of energy and a smile for anyone she met. She loved her church family so much. We lift you up as you grieve your loss.
