May 9th,1984 . Karina was born, an angel sent to us from heaven, she was so beautiful! She was an exceptionally good baby, and melted the hearts of everyone who was around her. When she was just a  few months old, I would come home from work, pick her up lay down on the couch with her snuggled on my chest, until she fell asleep. Unfortunately that process took several months to break as she would not go to sleep unless she was cuddled up to me.. I loved every bit of it! Throughout Karina’s life, she touched the hearts of everyone that knew her.. In Hayward, Karina met the love of her life, Alex Garecht, together they had 3 beautiful daughters, for 22 years inseparable. Karina had many likes & crafts that she was Exceptional with. I lost touch with Karina roughly 3 years ago, we had just recently reconnected & looking forward at what was to come, we didn’t get that chance... she was called back to heaven.. Karina please visit me from time to time, I would love to hang out with you.Baby you are the joy of my life, I love you, I will never forget you, I will keep you close in my heart... Rest In Peace my precious baby, love always, Daddy

I was new to online gaming, kept getting ripped off by guildmates, and happened to be in a guild with Kali (Karina), she messaged me and told me I was being over charged for the stuff I wanted, and called everyone out for selling high, and buying low because I didn't know any better. She started making all my items and only charged me for materials. Then I played with her husband and her. We had an awesome night, Alex and I were making Metallica guitar noises while she laughed while we ran around killing the enemy. She always made me feel like family, and was always kind and friendly. I really wish we had gotten to meet up. I should have taken the time to drive to California when I was in Vegas to meet up, you will be missed and forever remembered Kali! Love you!

I vividly remember the excitement that Scott had as they were awaiting Karina’s arrival in 1984– 
I remember that from that day on, she captured hearts. She was loved with all her parents had – and they always will.
I remember as Karina  grew older, she  became her  own person; She was  (yes stubborn) but was an artist and wanted somehow to express that. 
I remember how much Karina loved each of her babies, and gave each of them names that had special meanings that no other person had – this showed her artistic and creative side.
I wish I could have gotten to know Karina better as an adult, and I will always be sad about that; time and distance always bites us in the butt.
 Nothing I or anyone can ever say can make this better for my brother, her  Mom , and girls— but there are there are a few things I know without a doubt:  Karina  will always be loved by everyone here who she touched, she  will always be missed,  and are  most importantly, we know she is in Heaven and  she is now  at peace. 
Rest well sweet Karina – until we meet again
Love, Aunt Patti
