Karen found numerous friendships and enjoyed teaching crafts and giving those things that she created away to others. She earned several blue ribbons for both her crafts and baked goods at the Florida State Fair and Strawberry Festival and she would often stop by the Family Care Pharmacy to bless the employees with fresh donuts and her warm heart. She also enjoyed Bingo, morning coffee, traveling and her beloved University of South Florida’s Women’s Basketball Team (the team has lost one of their biggest fans).
In her local residential community, she volunteered on the kitchen committee and served as the chairperson of the memorial luncheons.
Her infectious laugh, generous heart, and loving smile will be missed by many people.
Many thanks to all who touched her life, including the staff at Family Care Pharmacy, Health Solutions Wellness Center, Conviva Care, South Florida Baptist Hospital, and Solaris Healthcare.
Karen lived on her own terms and left her on her own terms, always thinking of others first. Memorials and contributions can be made to a charity of your choice in honor of Karen.
