    I first met Karen when she started working at Hansen’s Independent. We worked in departments that were side by side, and we shared many laughs in the time that she was there. She was always so up beat, and bouncy, even when on the days when she wasn’t feeling well, even after she was diagnosed with lung problems. Karen always spoke her mind, whether she agreed with you or not, calling a spade a spade. With her, it was what you see, is what you get, very up front and brutally honest. I will miss that huge grin, and her crazy laugh, and the way I always felt better and more full of spunk myself after being around her. We will all miss you Karen, my heart breaks for her entire family, I remember how she always spoke of you all with such pride. And Rob, I can’t imagine how hard it is on you to lose your other half… Hugs to you all, she is sure going to be missed!!

    To Karen’s Family:
    Words, however kind, can’t mend your broken heartache, but those who care and share your loss wish you comfort and peace of mind. May you find strength in the love of family and in the warm embrace of friends. Karen was on our Auxiliary dart team when we won District Darts a few years ago.
