Our sincerest condolences to Karen's family and friends, whom she loved very much. She was a beautiful lady who always had such a positive outlook on life, no matter the circumstances. We will miss her very much.

Karen's heart and spirit are going to be sorely missed. She was such a fighter and through her entire battle with cancer, I never saw her give up. She always had an optimistic perspective. I pray that Karen's kids, grandkids and family feel enveloped by God's love and presence. Karen's legacy is love....and that is the greatest gift of all.

To Karen's family, we express our deepest sympathy. Karen was such a happy, vibrant person. I remember working many "hot dog days" at Chippewa with her. She always made the day the best it could be for the kids. We all enjoyed being around Karen because of her laughter and sense of humor!!! She truly left a mark on us and my children. Rest peacefully Karen!!!

I want to express my deepest, deepest sympathy to the entire family of Karen. I did not know Karen on a personal level, only from school where are kids attended. However, every time we crossed paths she had this beautiful smile that lit up a room. Again I am deeply sorry for the loss of this lovely lady. God Bless.

My sincerest condolences to the children, grandchildren, and Mike,
Your mother and girlfriend was the strongest woman. Her death really came as a surprise to me because every single time I asked her how she was doing, she never complained. She never let me know how bad she was. She knew how to make everyone else feel better. What an amazing woman. I'm going to really miss her.
Although I couldn't be at her services because I live out of state, please know I was there in spirit.
Know that she is with you always.
RIP sweet Karen.
