Karen was a great friend to me. I think about her often. I am sad that she didn't get to live and enjoy life like I have. I miss her alot. Rest in peace and I will see you again someday.
Karen & I met @ VBS the summer before 7th grade. We were the best of friends from day 1!!! We went to church & school together so there wasn't a lot of time that we were apart. Until I got married and moved to Ft. Walton Beach. Then on to Spain. We were only a few days from coming home when I got the call that Karen had passed away in a head-on car accident on her way home from St. Leo college. November 20, 1989. We had just talked about all the things we needed to catch up on when I got back to the States......sadly, it never happened! I still think of her often and miss her dearly!! She was my BFF!!!! This is the last picture I have of Karen.....on her wedding day!(02/20/1988)
