Karen Knorr, born on April 21, 1953, passed away on September 8, 2025, at the age of 72.

Our deepest condolences to family and friends for your loss. In your time of sorrow, you may consider lighting a candle in remembrance of those no longer with us.

Four Candles: The first candle represents our grief. The pain of losing you is intense. It reminds us of the depth of our love for you. This second candle represents our courage. To confront our sorrow, to comfort each other, to change our lives. This third candle we light in your memory. For the times we laughed, the times we cried, the times we were angry with each other, the silly things you did, the caring and joy you gave us. This fourth candle we light for our love. We light this candle that your light will always shine. We cherish the special place in our hearts that will always be reserved for you. We thank you for the gift your living brought to each of us. We remember you.

During this time of grief, we wish all of the loved ones of Karen peace and comfort on behalf of the entire staff at Mariposa Gardens Memorial Park and Funeral Care.
