  5. We were saddened to hear of Karen’s passing. Our deepest condolences to you, Paul, and your sons. The world is a little less bright today without Karen’s radiant smile and spirit. We were honored to sing with her for many years in the Assumption choir. She will be sorely missed!

  7. We are so sorry for your loss. Your family is like family to us. We know how truly blessed we are to have your family as our neighbors and friends. You were the longest married couple at Angela and Cody’s wedding. What a beautiful example of marriage you are. Everything you did, you did it together.
    Karen had so much love for her family. Family was so important to her. Karen had a gift of compassion, from helping us in our yard and throwing treats out to our pets, to having nice conversations while sitting on your deck. She always made us feel loved. She was caring, graceful, God-filled and trustworthy. She was a friend who will be greatly missed. We love you Karen!!❤️

  27. My heartfelt sympathy to you and your sons, Paul. I first met Karen when she was my roommate at our first ACTS retreat in 2012. I’ve always known her as a grace-filled woman. The way she completed her journey here on Earth has been an example for us left behind. Our prayers go out to you and for the blessed repose of her soul. We know too that she will be sending prayers down to us.
