I knew Karen and Hank from the time I was 3 years old.I had grown up on the hill behind their house.I am at a lost of words,it is very hard to grasp that Karen is really gone,when she was always there for everyone.I can remember all the times my brother Brian would bring her a wild animal that was hurt,from the woods up back. Karen would.al ways take it and do what she knew to make it all better.Then she would set it free. I am really gonna miss her. My deepest sympathy for Hank.
I first met Karen through their good friend Ken Hunt. I was at the time married to Ken. Karen was a wonderful person…..she would do anything for anyone . A very fun person , we all used to go up to their camp and ride four wheelers all over the place. She was a real animal lover ! We all used to go to car shows together too . I remember what a beautiful smile she had. We had so many good times together . She was so good to me . What a kind soul……she will be missed….My prayers go out to you , Hank , and your family . I’m so sorry for your loss. Denise
