This is dedicated to my big sister, Karen. She walks with the Lord today and quietly watches over us all. Her time with us went by too fast but her footprints on our hearts will carry us through until we are all rejoined again.

Karen was the most wonderful, kind and generous person I have ever met. She was truly and Angel sent from above to show us the way. Through her illness she always fought and was never one to complain, if you didn't know her you really wouldn't even know she was sick. She is the strongest woman I have ever known and I can only wish to have even a quarter of her strength. She was a devoted, loving wife and the most amazing mom that I have ever seen. She touch so many in so many different ways with her love of family and faith. She will be and is deeply missed. I never told her how much I looked up to her, she was my cousin but in my heart I admired and adored her and looked up to her though she was my big sister.

Karen, I love you and miss you so very much. You are forever in my heart, thank you for showing us the way and just being you.
