I met Karen 30 plus years ago, when she was my son Nathan's Confirmation teacher at St. Benedict's in Anchorage We shared many long conversations about marriage, kids, family, etc. and I valued her keen insights. Most of all, I remember Karen's love for her family, enthusiasm for life, her positive outlook and her laughter....always her laughter! You are in God's loving arms now, Karen..rest well.
