My deepest condolences, to Karen’s family & fiancé. Karen was my little baby sister I never had. Over the past 17 years we shared each other’s successes, sorrows, our pains and our basic life’s situations. I saw and/or communicated with Karen, on a weekly bases, where as with my two older bio-sisters I barely saw, on a monthly bases. As you already know, Karen was caring, understanding, loving and compassionate person. Due to my selfish desires, I’m not ready to let my baby sister go, which is causing me to have a heavy heart and great sadness. I know that on these days, I need to Glorify, to be Joyous and happy for my baby sister, for now she is with her Creator, our Heavenly Father, Father God. Karen hasn’t died, she lives and she has gone to the Promise Land to have the Happiest Eternal Life with God. I am Blessed and honored that Karen left her footprints in my Heart. I will greatly miss her, in this earthly world, but one day, we will meet up again…

I didn't know Karen very long or very well. I wish I knew her better. I do know that she was a kind person that was easy to talk too. When she & Michael were together they shared a love that was obvious..My sincere condolences to Michael and all who loved her.

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

I just reconnected with Karen months ago on Facebook. I am saddened to hear of her passing. She was ALWAYS a sweet lady. I would dj and play her favorite songs at Skaters Choice. She loved 'Nasty Girl' by Vanity 6. That song would play and she would smile ear to ear and give a thumbs up. Karen, I'm truly going to miss you!!! R.I.P. my friend. I trust in the Lord! He will take good care of you. Until we meet again my friend! Timothy Roberson a.k.a. "Timmy T"

i will miss u terribly so Rest in Peace my dear friend

Heaven has a new angel to watch over us . Miss you Karen

My prayers go out to your family. I believe you are in Heaven. You will be missed greatly. Your kindness and generosity was so comforting for Dave and I in our time of need. I will forever remember your unselfish nature. Rest dear Angel. Love JoAnne Romano

You can't put 30 years of memories in a few sentences.you were taken from us way to early. My thoughts and prayers go out to your family. Karen you will always be in all of our hearts

May God Bless Karen and keep her in his grasp. Love to Dottie and her family who adored her. My deepest sympathy at this trying time. Roe De Maio

I was shocked to hear of Karen's untimely death. We reconnected on Facebook and she was always so upbeat and positive and was so happy with her new "upcoming" life. I am saddened to hear the news and wish her mom Dottie and the rest of her family my sincere condolences. Karen is definitely an angel in heaven now.

To all of Karen's friends who knew Bill W. Today is two weeks since Karen's passing. I'm sorry I haven't had the time or the strength but somehow feel that Karen is working through me today from the moment I awoke to tell all of you how much she loved and valued her friendship and camaraderie with each and every one of you. I know that every day Karen spent with me in the last year of her life, (and I am and forever will be eternally grateful) she had spent less time with you, but I want you to know that not once did she ever falter, lose faith, hope or strength that you provided for her and she never stopped loving and caring for all of you. It just wasn't in her to do so. . Even though I have never met any of you before Karen's passing, I feel like I already know many of you from the inspiring and courageous stories that Karen had told me everyday for a year and never heard the same story twice. Please, deservingly remember and honor Karen at your gatherings as one of your most loving and caring supporters. I know that she'll still be there in spirit at each and every one. If anyone would like to share any stories of Karen with me at (msullivan87@comcast.net) I would love to read them. Thank You, Michael

Although we really didn't keep in touch once we were older, I have many fond and happy memories of Karen and I playing as kids. We loved to play restaurant and to sing and write plays together. I am sorry she is no longer with us, but I know that she is in Heaven and with her grandparents and Aunt Julie who loved her very much.

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

May your friends and family cherish your memories, share your joys, and may we always hold you closely in our hearts.

Karen was always such a warm person to talk to. Although I haven't been around her for years, I still remember those days like they were yesterday. Thank you to Gary and Dottie for making it possible for me to meet this great woman. My sincere love and condolences to Dottie, Gary and Sherry and the rest of the family during this very difficult time. God Bless you all -Paul Dintino

I will miss you, peace be with you.

I know it not EXACTLY EAGLES GREEN, but I know Karen is looking down on the game. I HOPE God is ready for Karen's "STYLE" of cheering our EAGLES on...lol

Oh How I MISS YOU. I'll see you again xoxo

I'm like everyone else.. total disbelief and completely shocked to hear of the passing of Karen. Her smile and love for everyone will never be forgotten. We had a great summer. She was always sharing about the love and friendship she had with her fiance, Mike. She always told me that regardless of whatever pain I happen to be in that God already had a plan, as Mike was God's plan for her. She reached her out to me over the summer during my own trying times, she shared her own experiences and hopes. I told her that I would teach her how to ride a motorcycle, as we all know she loved Harley Davidson.. haha (Well who doesn't!) :) I know in my heart that she is in Heaven riding with the wind in her hair. I celebrate your life and your ability to remain HAPPY, JOYOUS AND FREE! XOXO My love, sympathy and prayers to Karen's fiance, MIke, loved ones and friends. Gone but never forgotten! Chris Valerio

My condolences go out to Michaels + your families, who are still with us ! Good-Bye my friend + R.I.P. With a saddened heart, Bill Pluta

Hi Karen ! As I've said earlier,"I did not know you too well". What I'd like to say now is," I knew you enough to see that you were an Angel". We've talked before, and I'll keep that memory". You see that you've shown me just how great life could be, if you want it too ! You lived your life to the fullest, and not allowing anything get in your way. Now....you're with your Maker, helping Him with His heavenly duties ! Yes...you are at Peace now. Your service here on Earth is complete. I, and many, many others will miss you. A lot !!! Thank you for being you ! My prayers will be for, your Fiance Michael, his family members, and your family my friend ! R.I.P. Karen. I WILL SEE you again, when I reach the other side !! Good-bye Karen + carry on !!!! Sincerely, Bill Pluta + Katie Alpaugh...Until then.....

Oh, Karen...what can I say that I haven't already said? You were a great friend and my rock during a very difficult time of my life. There's so much more I should have said while you were still here. I love you, girl, and thank you so much for the friendship and our memories. EVERY time I straighten my hair I will think of you now. Only you would totally understand that statement lol!! <3 To Karen's family and fiancee, my prayers are with you during this trying time. Know that God worked through Karen and touched many, many lives while she was here on Earth. One thing I believe is that God will ask us the day we meet Him, "What did you do with the people I sent to you?" And Karen can honestly say, "I loved each and every one of them!" She was a very special woman with the biggest heart of almost anyone I've ever met! Be very proud of her accomplishments in her life. She lived to love and did it better than almost anyone I know. RIP Karen...I love you, girly!

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
