Karen made a powerful impression on the first meeting with her. I only ever met her a few times but she had a way of making you gravitate into her orbit and feel comfortable there immediately. A lovely, kind, warm person. I'm so, so sad for the memories she won't be able to make with the family she so obviously adored. I know you will all treasure the ones you have. Thinking of you. xo

Sean, Family, and Friends,
Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of you today as we come together, to honour Karen and the many lives that she touched.
An amazing Mom, wife, and friend her door was always open and she was always willing to lend a hand, or an an ear, whatever you needed.
For reasons unknown to us, the Good Lord called Karen home and now she sits among the angels watching over us. Filled with a passion for life that fuelled her family and touched us all, may all of us find a measure of comfort and solace in the memories that we have, and can share, of Karen in these difficult days ahead.
