Karen was a very sweet and dear friend. I will never forget her beautiful big eyes and her wonderful smile. She was a fire cracker and I’ll never stop missing her. My only comfort is that I know she is with the Lord and is smiling down upon us now.
MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND HOLD YOU CLOSE AT THIS TIME.. YOU ARE IN OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS.. GEORGE AND SHARON COOKE
