A true angel on earth, blessed by her honesty & her love stories. So sorry for your loss, looking forward to celebrating her life. Xx

I am so grateful for having "Mom H" in my life starting in 7th grade in Denver.  She showed me strength, joy and generosity everytime I saw her and she helped provide support and stability when things weren't the greatest for me at home.
Much love to my Halverson Family

I was thinking of Karen, and all the wonderful times we spent as next door neighbors in Fair Oaks. There are so many memories from picking up our house keys from her before we could enter our new home, to all the welcome parties for the chosen newbies, to trips together; open deck Fridays; domino nights; Karen making the cake for our son’s wedding (not the legal one, but Karen convinced her minister to perform the ceremony anyway) and announcing that made her honorary grandmother to their children; cooking school at the Apple Farm with Jim and Maryanne, pizza trips with the whole neighborhood to Fitzpatrick’s; singing Christmas carols to the bouncing ball in their living room; the list just keeps going, but we could probably all agree thought that the New Year’s Eve parties will be one that will live on for all of us. Each and every one of us are so lucky to have somehow stumbled into the Halverson’s sphere. I hope Karen is resting peacefully with Jay. Love you Karen. 💫

We have such fond memories of all the fun times we shared with Karen & Jay.  The 4 x 6” index card with the names, addresses  & phone numbers of at least 10 neighbors  Karen brought to us in March 1984 is still on my refrigerator.  The chocolate mayonnaise cake &  champagne was quickly enjoyed.   We miss them both muchly.
