So very sorry to read of Karen's passing. She will always be remembered as very kind and giving. Please rest in the thought that your Dad was waiting for her at the Pearly Gates, and they are together again.

Karen was one of the nicest person I ever met. She and her husband Gary were giant supporters of all forms of baseball here in Galesburg. Seems like everytime I bought something at the concessions stand, she would ask me about our son, Gordy.A huge loss for basball in Galesburg, Illinois!
