Karen was cruely taken from us at a time nobody expected. karen was a grandmother, a wife, a mother,
a sister, a daughter, a aunt, a cousin, a best friend and a vital part of the community. karen was
such a funny and easy going person and meant the world to everybody she knew. i knew karen for 6 and
ahalf years and as soon as i begun to know her i knew she was somebody special..karen was sooo
special she was a mum to me. karen would go to the end of the earth and back to help anybody who was
in need. Karen being taken from us has broken the hearts of SO many people and i know for a fact she
will never be forgotten.. we wont ever forget the crazy random things she used to come out with,
that laugh that you could hear from a mmile off.. the crazy curly hair she had a full head of and
most of the that massive heart of gold!! karen will sorely be missed and wont ever be forgotten.

I Will Love You Forever Karen.. You Will Always Be In My Heart xxxxxxxxxxx

Sorry!

Dear Karen,

Im so sorry i havent been on here or ages, i just feel ur with me anyway, but the way i can talk to u is on here.
When my mum and dad went to devon they brought be back a bear, she sings, and its ur funeral song that she sings, everytime i turn her on, i just think of you. She moves her mouth and flaps her wings as she sings, and i called her Karen. I wish i knew what you are doing and that u r ok.. I have my bad days which i think about u and i get upset that i cant see u, but i know that u wouldnt want me to cry, so i laugh when i can, instead of crying that uve died, i laugh at all the memories we have had together, and smile! I love u Karen, i think about u, every day, everynight, every hour and every second. . I wish i could still run over to u on the stall and give u the biggest hug in the world!!!! I remember when i aksed u if i could stay with u on the stall while mum shopped in asda, and u did me a french plait, and as we didnt have any hairbands u used an elastic band!! And I LOVED it, and i didnt want to take it out..
RIP KAREN, I LOVE U!!

there you'll be...

"There You'll Be"

When I think back
On these times
And the dreams
We left behind
I'll be glad 'cause
I was blessed to get
To have you in my life
When I look back
On these days
I'll look and see your face
You were right there for me

In my dreams
I'll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There will always be a place
For you for all my life
I'll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you'll be
And everywhere I am
There you'll be

Well you showed me
How it feels
To feel the sky
Within my reach
And I always
Will remember all
The strength you
Gave to me
Your love made me
Make it through
Oh, I owe so much to you
You were right there for me


'Cause I always saw in you
My light, my strength
And I want to thank you
Now for all the ways
You were right there for me
You were right there for me
For always

In my dreams
I'll always see you soar
Above the sky
In my heart
There will always be a place
For you for all my life
I'll keep a part
Of you with me
And everywhere I am
There you'll be
And everywhere I am
There you'll be
There you'll be

Me

Life's never the same when someone you love so dearly dies and things will never be that way again, you learn to have a new way of life without your loved ones, but never forget that those lost loved ones are the ones who played a part in who we are today!

So here's to all our loved ones, thanks for making me/us all the people we are today and thats something to be proud of!

A Dream as real as you

A strange thing happened to me,
You came with in a dream,
One so real I couldn’t believe
That is was just a dream,

You stood there looking at your dead body,
Then you looked at me,
For there you were in sprit
As Plane as you could be,
Smiling and happy

Your arms went out and you cuddled me,
Said that you were now free,
I said I loved you and cherished this moment
For I knew it would be the last chance
To hold and be with you,

You were not alone there were spirits there with you,
But my eyes only focused on you,
Warmth filled my heart,
Sadness disappeared,
For I got to say farewell,
Even if it was only in a dream

God Bless Karen may your sprit be happy and free xxxxxx

FOR KATRINA

The love of a Daughter, (Katrina)
Is precious and unique,
Yet when you’re left alone,
With no Mothers hand or love to hold,
For the lord above takes her hand
For he needs her for his precious land,

The pain and heartache left behind,
Scars the heart and the mind,
Know one there to guide you
Help you in your hour of need,
Just a waterfall of tears,
Of a loving mother, who’s gone to soon?

You have memories to treasure,
To carry you through the days,
Knowing you both loved one another,
In a way no other knows,
Secrets shared between you,
Happy days to recall,

Know words can be spoken of the emptiness inside,
Where Karen’s presence was while she was alive,
Please just remember there are those who still love you,
Feel your pain inside,
You only have one mother and Katrina,
Your was unique special and had a heart full of love,
God Bless you and keep Karen’s memories safe,
To bring you warmth and love,
When a bad day appears

Thinking of you Katrina and of Karen xxxxxx
