Prayers for Karens family. She was an Aunt I have many good memories of. I remember I had to wait until they talked to tell her and Aunt Kay apart. She will be greatly missed.

To my Ansley cousins. So very sorry for the loss of you mom. She was so helpful during the time my mom was sick, taking her to appointments, helping her out at home and sitting with her at Kavanaugh House. True sisters. Love you guys.

As I read this I have a few tears . So sorry to hear the passing of Karen. We worked together at Hy - Vee 1990 - 1997 . And what some great memories for sure. We gave her the title Hy- vee Grandma. She was definitely so sweet & one of a kind too . We have exchanged Christmas Cards for over 25 years now. Thanks Karen for all those great memories that I still carry with me. Sending Prayers to Karen family during this difficult time. RIP Karen till we meet again
