Karis was held and loved by many after she was born. Her parents are members at Christ Redeemer Church in Woodbury and while in the womb she was prayed for, loved, and glorified God in so many ways by the Body of Christ. She loved to hear her daddy’s voice and smiled when he spoke or sang to her. She loved snuggling with and holding her mommy’s fingers. Her big brothers will miss their “baby Carrots.” Visitation for Karis will be held on Thursday, February 4, from 4PM to 7PM, at Wulff Funeral Home on 2195 Woodlane Dr, Woodbury.
