We were introduced to your mom by your Aunt Darlene. She was a kind and gentle soul. We were lucky to have met her. May it comfort you to know that we were so very sorry to hear of your loss.

You're in our thoughts now, and in the days to come. God Bless You

"God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So he put his arms around you and whispered "come with me". With tearful eyes we watched you,
and saw you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make
you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest.
... God broke our hearts to prove to us, he only takes the best." I love you Aunt Karen.

Karen was my friend. A beautiful, sweet person, always thinking of others, kind, and so full of courage. A person who truly loved her creator. She loved her family so much, and everyone that knew her loved her, and I will miss her very very much. With a sad heart, Pat Biksacky
