Mike and family, So sorry for your loss. Jason, CarrieAnn, Mily, & Isaac Rhoton

I have been Karen's hairstylist for over 30 years, and during those years we have had many wonderful conversations and walked through many happy things we have celebrated and many sad things that we encouraged each other through. I'll never forget when she called me to tell me she had Kaitlyn several weeks early, and how thrilled she was to be a mommy. We talked for a long time that day as I was a new mom too, my son Hagen being born just a month before Kaitlyn. Karen was everything this obituary describes her to be. She was a gentle soul who radiated love and kindness. I used to joke with her when she would comment on her thin hair that when she entered Heaven, she would pass by a mirror and get a glance and realize she had a head full of long, flowing hair! I hope that's true, but either way, I know she is able to see, to walk, to breathe and live like she has never lived before, free of all her troubles and disabilities. I know without a doubt that one day I'll see her sweet face again, and for that I am thankful. I loved Karen, and love you all, Michael, Kaitlyn and Elmira, and will continue prayers for you through this time of such great loss.

I met Karen and her family at dialysis where Lee goes as well, Karen has always be so loving and sweet to Not just Lee but also ArieAlla and myself Her Husband Mike and daughter Kaitlyn have always treated ArieAlla with Love and Kindness, Karen will definitely be missed by many of us. My Condolences Goes Out To Her Entire Family. Fly High Karen You are Definitely A Special Angel.
