We will miss Karen tremendously. Dusty (Harold) always felt close to Karen. They were second cousins, but because of their age being the same they always hung together and confided in each other. My heart is heavy with grief due to the circumstances that took Karen so early. I take solace in knowing that the suffering is over and that she is in Peace in Heaven. My thoughts are with Karen's family. May her memory bring you comfort. She was greatly Loved and will be missed by all who knew her. Dusty and I will miss her and always think of the Fun family times we spent together. Love from April and Dusty Rhoades
