Karen was the family photographer, our garden whisper, artist, and lover of nature and the outdoors. She loved her pets treating them as part of the family and even loved her children’s pets like her own. She had a great sense of humour, loyalty, and pride. She was a protector like a mama bear when it came to her family and she loved with all her heart, if you were one of the lucky ones to be loved by her you knew it. She was always there for her family and friends; she made sure you knew you could come to her for help and guidance whether it be physical or with advice good or bad she would help you see other points of view to help guide you. She would help any of us in any way she could and would stand
behind you, protect you, and love you no matter what.
We all love you so much and will miss you so much, but we have that love and so many memories to keep us going till we see you again.
XOXOXO
