Dear Karen I miss your smiling face in the Infusion Center , when I first came to the BWH you made me feel welcomed and went out of your way to help in any way you could, I just want to tell you that it meant so much to me. I miss your energy , everyday you bounded around that room, your patients loved you, and you made sure to take a minute to say hello to them and share a story or two about your grandchildren. I miss you very much Karen. Xoxo

Karen was a remarkable woman, who tought me that you can't take yourself too seriously and you just need to have some fun, laugh and enjoy life! It was an honor and privilege to know her. May she Rest In Peace.

God bless

I wanted to express my heartfelt condolences to Karen's family. There's such a sense of helplessness when someone we love dies. I'd like to share some scriptural thoughts that really helps me. Prayer is so valuable at this time but it's not that prayer simply makes us feel better. 2 Cor.4:7 says that God can give us, "... power beyond what is normal ", to go from one day to the next. This does not mean that we no longer cry or that we forget, but it means we recover. The reason we recover is because of our hope. Jesus Christ talked about our hope in John 5:28, "... all those in the memorial tomb will hear his voice and come out ". Jesus was referring to the resurrection, this is the hope that helps us recover and gives us power to go on. 2 Cor.1:3 describes our Creator as, "... the God of all comfort ". One way that God comforts us is by moving people who care about us to give us words of encouragement that we need to hear. May the God of comfort (Ps.83:18) be your comfort now during this time of sorrow.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I knew Karen as a fellow nurse at Quincy and then as my nurse at the infusion center at the Brigham. She was always caring, funny and so kind. She will be missed by many. I always think of her smiling and laughing.

So sorry to hear about Karen I worked with her at Quincy Hospital and later on a private duty assignment as well as a neighbor in Braintree. She was a great caring person who will be sorely missed.
