My thoughts and prayers are with the family at this most difficult time. I first met Karen when she worked at the Stoughton Open Pantry many years ago. I bumped into Karen several times when I used to play bingo at the VFW. Karen also made out my taxes for me, She will be sadly missed by alot of people RIP Karen. Kristi Huberd

Our sympathy to Joanne and the rest of Karen's family. Frank and Margaret Holetz were my aunt and uncle and Frog was my first cousin. My parents were Ing and Marie Reiten. May Karen rest in peace.
