Dear Rod and family -
May the Holy Spirit provide the peace, that The Comforter does, in your hearts in the weeks, months and years ahead. Draw close to the Lord, and He will draw close to you. [James 4:8] We do not claim to understand that peace, but are so thankful that it is a promise from God.
Karen was a positive influence in PLI and to me personally as a PIP in the program.
May she leave a legacy of faith for generations - a road we each must find.

Rod and family:

Robbie and I are saddened by the passing of Karen, but encouraged by the promise that she is celebrating eternal life with Jesus now. We pray for the Lord's peace and comfort for you and the family during this time. Karen truly was a wonderful person and affected many lives here on earth. She was such a beautiful Christian example to others. I can just hear Jesus saying to her, "Well done thy good and faithful servant." May you never forget her smile and the many happy times you shared with her knowing you will be joined with her again in heaven some day. We celebrate her life with you and the family until we meet her again. Love and peace.
