Karen, you have been missed so much and you have missed so much as well. Your little girls are now young women. You have taught and loved them well. You were taken way too soon. Not a day goes by that your Mom and Dad do not think of you. Mike, Bobby, and Linda remain so close to you. Watch over us. We miss you and we love you.

Karen was a beautiful reflection of her parents. She will live on through her daughters and her light will shine through the darkest of nights, showing them the way as her parents showed her. Thank you to her TSA family as well. Your presence thoughout her services rekindled the loyalty that seems so lacking in today's business world. I am so glad she she found you and that she found a second family in you. God bless you all.

May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields and,

I am deeply saddened by the loss of Karen. I met Karen years ago when she had her grooming business out of her home. She was such a dog lover and took good care of my dog. Years later, while waiting for a flight at Midway Airport, someone called my name, and it was Karen. She was working as a TSA Agent. The last time I saw her was last year while we were at Animal Care Clinic with our dogs. It was great seeing her and catching up. She was an upbeat, lovely woman and I am so sorry she is gone way to soon.

SAFELY HOME
I am home in heaven, dear ones;
Oh, so happy and so bright!
There is perfect joy and beauty
In this everlasting light.
All the pain and grief is over,
Every restless tossing passed;
I am now at peace forever,
Safely home in heaven at last.
There is still work waiting for you,
So you must not idly stand;
Do it now, while life remaineth-
You shall rest in God?s own land.
When that work is all completed,
He will gently call you Home;
Ah, the rapture of that meeting,
Oh, the joy to see you come!

I would like to express my deepest condolences to Karens family you all are in my prayers. One memory I have of Karen is the positive energy she always had at 4am, myself & all the younger co-workers always wondered why is she so chipper at this time of morning we never could understand it, but after personally working side by side with her for 3 years I learned why because thats who she is a positive, sweet, & energetic woman who came to work every day with such joy in her heart & a smile on her face & never once complained about it & thats the Karen I know & loved. Karen your spirit will always live in our hearts, so now you can rest in peace my friend rest in peace.

The first time I met her she was telling off a passenger and I was in awe if her. I was young 22 and I said I'm going to be like her. She spoke her mind and if she hurt your
feelings in the process she apologized. I always respected her I loved her smile and her sense of humor. I will always rem lolis is here is what she used to say in roll call, that grew to be a joke between her and everyone. So I know you are up in heaven saying lolis is here with that same smile and energy that you brought to work everyday.
