[I took the initials of her first and second name to create this little poem] KAREEN ADELE Kindness of your gentle spirit Always showed in your beautiful smile Recognizing your husband and children, your most precious gifts…though just for awhile Enjoying times with family and friends Ever-so-happy with the life you had Never did we believe you'd leave this way…sad All who know you surely will grieve…and, Dear to our hearts, you'll always be Even when we reminisce memories we hold in heart Love is the word that comes to mind Eternally…'til we're no longer apart With all my love, Auntie Maureen April, 1998
