Karen, beautiful, sweet, kind, talented Karen! I think of you often. Jay and I talk and we both agree .... no one more talented than you! You could take literally nothing in decor or clothing and make it a masterpiece! And what a cook! Your kindness was abundant ... love for your girls no boundaries. Those are the things you are very much remembered for. Love you and miss you.

Karen —- still missing you and still so very sad you passed. You were way too young to pass. Your kindness and caring is so missed. I still say I haven’t met anyone with the creative ability that you had. You always created magic! Love you forever.

Karen, you are so missed. You never asked for much in life, always tried your hardest and the love you had for your daughters and granddaughters was second to none. You were also very, very, talented . but never realized how very good and creative you were. May you rest in eternal peace. Love you and miss you!

Karen, you left us way too soon. You will be sorely missed. You had the biggest heart and best soul. You only wanted what was best for everyone and your love and devotion to your family was second to none. You always tried. I pray you are in the loving arms of God and Jesus. May you rest in peace. Love you ...
