What a lovely person! I think we all adored Karen. I know I did.

Dear Karen's family,
I met Karen years ago when our daughters (Chloe and Jen) were on a DYBA softball team. Whenever I ran into Karen after that, she always blew me away because she remembered all the details of the Newman family. Karen was a very special person who created good feelings and laughter wherever she went. I was stunned to learn that she is no longer with us and I wanted you to know that her passing impacts more people than you could possibly know. I am so sad that she is no longer with us and my deepest sympathies are with all of your family.
Sincerely,
Sue Newman

As a member of the community, and a past band memeber of Highland Park High School I would like to offer my deepest sympathy to the family. We all know she's always with us in our thoughts and in our hearts. She will always be remembered.

I was greatly saddened to hear of Karen Hamity's passing. She was a woman of truly breathtaking beauty, uncommon grace, artistic talent, and, most importantly, a devoted mother of three accomplished and talented children. She and her family are in my prayers. God bless them and comfort them (in a way that our human efforts cannot) as they cope with their grief. Our entire community is bereaved and she will be sorely missed.
With prayerful sorrow,
Pauline Dessler
