Karen, You know that your family is like family to me. Your Mom, the perfect friend anyone could have. She was this to me for 55 years. This day is way too soon. We will all miss her terribly and never forget. We have wonderful memories - the kind that not many are fortunate to have. We were blessed and I feel very special to be among your friends. I love you...April

Karen,
What can I say? I am so sorry for your loss.Your Mom has touched my life in a dramatic fashion. For that gift I am blessed and will be forever grateful.I know it is not for any of us to question, but for some reason this loss just doesn't seem right. For someone we all know put up such a Fighters fight. She faced this incredibly difficult challenge with amazing courage and grace. I want you to know I will truly miss GeGe, our times together, her gentle spirit, and smile on her face. May she now Rest in Peace.

Karen,

I will always remember your mother fondly. She was "our Ginny" at CFC 8, my favorite person to talk to about movies and share recipes with. I am very sorry about your loss.
