Memories of Karly will remain in my heart forever. Days of Ruby Daugherty and softball with the girls was always fun. Karly always had a smile and hug for me when I saw her. Prayers for another Angel.

Dear Jan & Jim, We oh so feel your pain and, and at that, so very deeply. Loosing a child is the hardest thing any of us can ever deal with, and something no parent imagines having to face. It steals our breathe and our future. We are so very sorry for your loss, but we want you to know that we are here anytime you are ready and need to talk. Death stings. Sudden death stings harder. I wish we could heal each others pain. Hold fast to God's grace, as we have learned to do. Remember our Our Eternal Hope is in Christ Jesus. You are forever in our prayers. Jay & Jeanne DeAngelo & Abrielle

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal; love leaves a memory no one can steal. I am so sorry for your loss. Karly was one of the kindest people in the world. I always loved seeing her at Giant Eagle - so friendly always asking about my children. She was in my daughter's class at South Park and they were on the swim team together. Elaine Morgenstern
