My Sweet Friend, I do miss you so much. This week has been so difficult. What brings me peace is knowing how much you loved Jesus. Jesus sure Loves You. I will cherish our friendship and conversations for the rest of my life. Rest in Jesus Sweet Karen, because one day soon, we will see each other again. Then we will have all eternity to visit, laugh, and love. Remember our conversation that we will meet in the fold of Our Savior’s robe. That is what allows me to walk forward each day. May God Comfort your family and friends. I Love You Karen.

So very sorry to hear of Karens passing. It came as a surprise and can only guess as to why. Karen was absolutely pivotal in the early part of my life. We met and for the first time i looked to a future that cleared and brightened up. When our time together passed i never lost my thirst for education and drive and thought of her often. We re-acquanted in later years for a short time. I am sorry she left this life but…. she was saved; this i know and Karen is probably running an outpost somewhere in the clouds. Her laughter was contagious and she could light up a room if she so chose. I always felt that that if i needed to, i could discuss anything under the sun with her. She will be missed but relieved and glad Jesus has her in the fold.
