I was shocked and full of sorrow when I learned of Karyn's passing. I dug out some old film I had moved to video tape and found a birthday party (8th I think). Both Karyn and Julie were there. I never had the honor or opportunity of knowing Karyn as an adult but I treasure memories of our childhood growing up on Oriole Ave.
With Deepest Sympathy to the Rose and Duffy families, Mark Gorka

Although no words can really help to ease the loss you bear, just know that you are very close in every thought and prayer.

Dear Family, You don't know me, but I knew Karyn. I went to grade school and high school with her. Even though I have not seen Karyn since high school, I remember her very well! You never forget good people, no mater how many years pass. She was a very wonderful and kind person. I am so sorry for your loss. I keep your family in my prayers. I pray the Lord will comfort you during this very difficult time, and draw you close to him, and cradle you in his arms.

My sympathy to all of you. It has been many years since we have seen each other but I have only the fondest memories of Karyn and our time in Sunday School and Confirmation Classes together. Our lives were linked together for a short time, but I will always remember Karyn as a kind and friendly classmate. May God's peace be with all of you during this difficult time and always.
