Sincerest and heartfelt condolences to Kara's entire family and her/their dearest friends; to her former patients whom she helped in their recovery; to her students at Sunday School. . . . . If my precious, fairly recently-belated husband were still here on Earth, he would express his sympathies, too. . . . . . Kara is now in God's loving embrace and welcomed by her loved ones in Heaven. . . . . R.I.P., dear Kara.

I am heartbroken for you Pete, Caitlin, and Mila. There are truly no words to help with this loss. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers. I will always remember my long talks with Kara. She loved you all beyond words. She enjoyed talking about her immediate and extended family with pride and love. She was a great friend whom was always willing to listen when needed and offer support emotionally. She was wise beyond her years. You will never be forgotten. Thanks for being a wonderful friend and coworker.
