Karen and I were friends in high school. She always had that same sweet smile and a beautiful soul. It was good to reconnect on Facebook a year or so ago and learn how her life turned out; she will be missed by so many. Prayers and blessings being sent your way Mark and family.

I will always remember Karen with a smile on her face and a song in her heart. She has no doubt been welcomed as the newest member of the heavenly choir.
