My parents are at Transitional and I would see Karen when I would visit them. I always thought she was such a nice person, always friendly and very caring. I knew she hadn't been in good health for quite awhile but was surprised to read she'd passed on. My thoughts and prayers are with Karen's family during this time. Sincerely, Marie Rose

Dear Kristin and Kim,

 

I was very sad to learn Karen had passed away while I was gone this winter- I enjoyed my time with her and thought about her and worried about her often.  She holds a special place in my heart and prayers!

 

Take care, Cris DeKuiper
