Karen was one of my best friends in junior high and high school.  We shared many good times.

Karen was a dear friend for many years, from 5th grade,, when she moved across the street from me until shortly before her death.  We had lost touch for many years, but we were able to reconnect and pick up where we had left off while she was undergoing treatment.  I will always be sad that I did not get to see her again, but I cherish the memories of both good and sad times that we shared.

Karen was one of my best friends from the 5th grade on.  She was a smart, loyal, and devoted friend.
