Sunset Hills Garden Club still talks about Karen and what a valuable member she was. We will never forget her! Excellent gardener, wonderful hostess, always willing to help -especially with our annual plant sale.

Karen was an absolute delight with children. Her love of mathematics was so strong that the kids also became super enthusiastic about it! I was honored to know and work with her.

Wonderful teacher that I worked with at number three school. She was always there for students and was a conscientious teacher whose students finally remember.
