Momma I hope that you where about how many people showed up to celebrate your life and to show their love to use just like you did to everyone. I love you and miss you so much. I wish I could love you back to us because I just want to hug and talk to you.

Her love for her grandkids. She always made sure there were pictures of family members on display everywhere. And I mean EVERYWHERE. So that the kids would see something familiar when they visited-which was often-you´d open one up and there would be older pictures behind those.
She was all about family and a loyal friend.
Karen, you will be missed.

Steve Krystal Felisha and Nina,
I am so sorry for the loss of Karen. My heart breaks and I am truly sad. She was an amazing woman that I can call my friend. No matter where my life or journey took me when I came home to visit I would run into her around and we would catch up. She connected to me through a difficult time in my life and I am so grateful for the support. Karen will be greatly missed.
