I am so sorry for your loss.
I was fortunate to have had Karen as a good friend and academic colleague for many years, beginning when we were both young researchers and I have many good memories of those times with her. She made an impact on our field with her publications and hard work.
My sincere condolences to all of you.
Tony Vandervoort
Sincere sympathy and condolences to Karen’s numerous family and friends. As a former research colleague, it was most unfortunate to see her great potential for scientific discovery drained away by illness. In that previous time when her academic candle burned so intensely however, Karen provided a lasting legacy of strong intelligent scholarship for others to build upon.

My deepest sympathy to you Brieanna ,Gavin and Family. It saddens me deeply to hear of her passing.
Karen and I had tea every Tuesday and she would always bring out her lovely china when I came. She was a very intelligent woman and I admired her. She talked so proudly of her children, family and career.
I admired her strength, she was a beautiful person and I will miss our Tuesday morning teas together.
My deepest sympathy again to all the family, you are all in my thoughts and prayers!!
