So sorry for the loss of a funny, generous, kind soul. Karen was introduced to me by her Desert Winds friends. She was a fabulous cook and we had many fun times playing poker. I miss her spirit. God Bless her and her family and friends.

I’m so sorry about your loss. Karen was so brilliant. I always admired her accomplishments. She made me the best soup I’ve ever had. Her sense of humor always had me smiling. She’s resting now and at peace. Karen you are loved and missed.

I am very sad to hear of Karen’s passing. I taught with her in Phoenix in the late 80’s. We wrote and published a ife skills book together to use with our students. Other than the annual Christmas card we had lost touch but I always felt I could pick up the phone and call her and it woukd be just like old times. Karen was a very caring person. Whenever I think of her I picture her laughing.
