Karin & I worked together at DHL in the early 80´s. We kept in contact over our love of dogs and football, especially the football squares. Heaven is a much better place with her as the newest angel. God speed my sweet friend.

I have known Karin almost 40 years when she worked at DHL in San Leandro since 1987! We worked in the office and laughed at the craziness of some of the employees. We would compare notes every 49ers seasons! I am shocked she is gone! She will be missed! Belle.

So shocked and sad to hear of Karin's sudden passing.
I met Karin through our mutual love of Rod Stewart. I met her in Las Vegas at a Rod Concert. Karin loved to see my photos of Australia and our animals. RIP Karin..

Met Karin through our mutual love of Rod Stewart. We were at a few Vegas concerts together especially the one where Rod bought us a drink and then had his picture taken with us. Gone much too soon. RIP angel

We never met in person, but we had warm contact because of our Rod Stewart activities. Far too young to leave us, Karin.

We became friends through the Rod Stewart fan club and I met you in Vegas a few times. You were a lovely lady and I will always have fond memories of you in my heart. Rest in peace my lovely. You will be surely missed by all of the Rod family.

I always considered Karin a close friend although we only met in person a couple of times. We met through our love for Rod Stewart, and then found we both were fans of auto racing and cocker spaniels. She was such a lovely person and I will miss her a lot. Condolences to her family.
