Dear Don & Family: Karen was one of the strongest and compassionate people I have ever met. I watched her comfort very small children to grandmas and grandpas. And how she loved her flowers and her angels. Karen could have won the national award for Christmas decorations. With love, Missy

God took you to soon but thanks to him there is no more pain. I will miss you very much, your smile, your laugh and your open door making me feel at home. To my Truppa friends/family you are all in my prayers during this time of loss.

It is sad to think of not hearing her greeting "Hi Girls" with a chuckle when we girls would get together. She was a sweetheart who loved her family dearly. I am so sorry for your loss. As a believer, I hope we shall meet again one day. No more cane, then, just big hugs. May God hold you in the palm of His hand during and after this most difficult time. God bless. Annie
