I had the privilege of working with Kara at Pacific National Bank/California Savings Bank. We often worked on projects together and spent a lot of time talking and getting to know each other. I am deeply saddened that this world has lost such a sweet and gentle soul. God Bless you Kara and my sincerest condolences to the Rommelfanger Family.

In such shock. Cant imagine Williams family outings without Kara. Kara was one of the nicest sweetest most caring people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing and loving. She could light up a room with her smile and her infectious positivity. She loved kids.... I would always admire the way she was with mine. Far too young and far too soon! I wish we all had more time... to enjoy you and your beautiful soul. I love and miss you Kara and one day I know I will see you on the other side. My heart and prayers are with Karas family right now.. I cant even begin to imagine their pain. God bless
