She fought the good fight when the paraprofessionals were unionizing at Lincoln-Way and then with the demon that eventually took her life. Every inch of the way Karen showed her tough but gentle nature, serious yet humorous demeanor, and her steadfast love for friends and family. Lord, we will certainly miss her.

Rest my friend and know how much you were loved.
