Shawn & Vickie. We always consider your mother a very wonderful , kindhearted & alway thinking of others kind of person. Though we did not see each other as often as we should. The times we did they were wonderful memories of our past. It was not that long ago we shared a wonderful conversation. A few cries & laughs.
Your mother will be sadly missed. But be strong , she was. She would want that.

Philippe & Janet Maes
God saw you getting tired
and a cure was not to be
so he put his arms around you
and whispered,
“Come to Me”
…
With tearful eyes we watched you
and saw you pass away
and although we love you dearly
we could not make you stay.
A Golden heart stopped beating
hard working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best
RIP Karen
we will for sure Miss you
Jan Butler
To all of her family and friends know that my heart hurts for the loss if Auntie Karen. I have such fond memories if her and I will cherish them always. We laughed in Vegas and we laughed out here in Alberta. It was so cool to watch her face when I took her back to her home she had in Okotoks. Memories keep them close to your heart and know she is with you always. Love you all

Shaun, Vicki and Family. I just don’t know what to say but I will try…K (as I affectionately called her and she called me M each and every time we saw each other) was was one of a kind friend….So kindhearted, sweet and caring and even though we did not see each other as often as we would like to have, we sure did love to catch up when we saw each other ..(just like a month ago we chatted for quite a while) I will miss K so much .she was a wonderful Mom, grandmother, wife and friend to many .
K will be sadly missed along life’s way, quietly remembered every day…
No longer in our life to share, but in our hearts, she will always be there.
Yvon and I both feel blessed to have known Karen. and our prayers and thoughts with you…
