My memories of Karen

Karen and I met at Tai Chi classes a few years ago. Her pleasant nature was evident from the very first day she joined us.

This was reinforced on a trip to the Magdelan Islands where a group of us attended an Intensive for Tai chi. She acknowledged everyone with such a big smile and friendly conversation. She was such fun to be around and we soon learned that she was totally genuine and sincere.

There was a period of time that I didn't see her as she had a knee operation and wasn't able to be with our group.

However, we met again at the Senior's Active Living Centre where we got to play bridge together. Our group was so happy if we could get Karen to sub for one of our members.

From there, Maureen Paquet, Diane Flood and I formed a bridge group with Karen. Her lovely nature shone again.

We had great laughs and didn't take things too seriously. We had such fun together as a group and looked foreward to the times we could get together.

Karen was a beautiful person and is certainly missed.
