I knew Karen from Marathon. The day she had her first date with you Bill, I was working with her, and she was giddy all day (what to wear, how to act, etc). If my memory is correct, it was a blind date. And here you were married almost 50 years. She was cute, fun, ambitious, friendly. I have good memories of her. I also remember we had the same birthday. May God comfort you and your family in the many months to come as you adjust to your new life without Karen's presence.
