I just heard an old song that made me think of you, Karen. It made me think of you and compelled me to look you up online. I'm gutted to see that you have passed. You are one of my happiest memories. - Posted by: Craig (Friend) on: Jun 11, 2025

Karen you always had a smile and your light shown bright. It has been a while since we seen each other. I am grateful that you were in my life. I have happy memories from us living in the same apartment building in Mississauga. From cat sitting, shared dinners, late nights and Super Bowl! You had the comfiest sofa to lay on… 😂. I will always think of you with those beautiful memories. I will look to the skies and hope to see you spread your angel wings flying high over all of us! Fly high! - Posted by: Hunter Kimberly (Old friend ) on: Jun 09, 2023

I am deeply saddened to hear of Karen’s passing. I met Karen back when I lived in Mississauga and lived in the mulligan’s neighbourhood. We became fast friends, sharing similar stories and life experiences and many laughs both at mulligans and out for dinners together . She was always laughing, loved life and always made me feel welcome. I extend my sincerest condolences to her family and close friends. Heaven gained an Angel although far too soon. Rest high on that mountain my dear friend. You will be sorely missed and never forgotten ♥️ - Posted by: Toba Shuman (Friend ) on: Mar 09, 2023
