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
When David phoned to say you had died,
My instant response was to say he had lied,
I awoke into a living nightmare, with so much to do.
This cannot be true, a life without you.
Each sister and brother I had to tell,
Now I am aware of their living hell,
How do we tell our Mummy the news?
What sort of words should we choose?
Howard was brave and said the right thing,
Surely, this is the worst news to a mummy you can bring.
Shock took hold, a state of disbelief,
I do not think mummy has ever suffered such grief.
And for Katrina, what can we do?
She has lost a sister and her mum too,
Katrina’s loss is the greatest. We know that is true,
All we can do is love and be here for you x
David is suffering with so much pain,
His life now pours a constant rain,
He walks this earth in a daze,
Through his tears he lives in a haze.
To get you home was all I would ask,
You can not imagine that sort of task.
You came home on your original homeward flight,
And Bob and Cathy came with you that cold night.
The doctors then had to do a report, as to why
My darling Karen you had to die,
Ischaemic heart disease was the cause,
Your perfect body had no other flaws.
We then made plans to lay you to rest,
We start with the church where you and David were blessed,
You will then be reunited with your daughter, Zena,
This will be the hardest day for your beloved Katrina.
Karen, beautiful Karen, you have left a hole in our world,
You were such a good and lovely girl,
Your smile and laugh we will keep in our heart
Never knowing why you had to depart.
You can never be replaced; you were one of a kind,
You will never be far from the thoughts in our mind,
We have done the best we can for you,
Rest in peace, Karen, our love will always stay true.
Your broken hearted sister Elizabeth…xxxxxx
one month on..
one month has passed and we find ourselves still numb..
it hasnt got any easier.. we still cry all the time ad all still feel a part of us is missing and this isnt going to change..
you were such a big part of everybody you knew..
we all talk about you..
your beautiful smile.. kind nature.. bubbly personality..
but behind our words are heartach, tears and pain..
all we can think about are the ifs, whens , hows and whys.
IF we told you enough how we felt - IF we thanked you enough for everything you done for us - IF we told you enough how much we loved you - IF we showed you enough how much we cared - most of us IF you knew all this.
we think about WHEN we went out that day - WHEN you were there for us at our lowest - WHEN you were there to congratulate us at our highest - WHEN you wiped our tears away and WHN you held our hands when we were scared - WHEN we could laugh for hours about nothing - WHEN we said stupid things but still understood one another - WHEN we had those talks from the heart and WHEN we gave each other that last kiss goodbye and that last hug WHEN we said merry christmas and said goodbye and WHEN we promised each other we would go out for a drink in the New year!
its hard to think HOW on earth are we going to carry life on without you there to guide us, teach us and help us.
BUT the hardest thing is we wonder WHY you?? WHY has 'god' taken someone so magnificent away from us and WHY now when you had such a life yet to live.
We all love you so much.. your parting has bough us all together as one and we are helping one another through this impossible time.
the time is approaching where we lay you to rest for good .. you need to rest.
we love you Karen.. ALWAYS and FOREVER.
RIP our angel

As We Look Back.
As we look back over time
We find ourselves wondering .....
Did we remember to thank you enough
For all you have done for us?
For all the times you were by our sides
To help and support us .....
To celebrate our successes
To understand our problems
And accept our defeats?
Or for teaching us by your example,
The value of hard work, good judgement,
Courage and integrity?
We wonder if we ever thanked you
For the sacrifices you made.
To let us have the very best?
And for the simple things
Like laughter, smiles and times we shared?
If we have forgotten to show our
Gratitude enough for all the things you did,
We're thanking you now.
And we are hoping you knew all along,
How much you meant to us.
~~~~
Love you always and forever karen x x x x x

I bet you were there. x
Hi Karen,,x
I went over the market today. I saw Katrina, you are both SO alike. Same laugh, Same hair, and same sense of humour. I bet you were there tho. x I miss you angel xxx
Today God, you've taken away a person that many of us loved dearly.
Now our lives will be changed forever and that is a burden we all will have to bear.
All we ask is that you take good care of her because now she is in your hands.
and to help those of us still here to understand.
We know that she is going to be with us every step of the way
And at times things may get tough and we may not know what to say xx
Everyone misses you Karen. xxxx
All my love
x Sally x
