My deepest sympathy to Karen's family and friends. Karen and I lived in the same neighborhood and were good friends at Roosevelt Elementary. I remember her parents well, as I visited their home as a child. I remember their warmth and sleeping over in the cozy upstairs. Karen and I lost touch over the years, but I will never forget what a sweet, kind childhood friend she was. I wish I had known her to adulthood. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Dear Wienke Family, I am so sorry for your sudden loss.. Karen was a wonderful friend and lady always. She will be missed greatly. I wish I could have made it back home like we tried to plan but just couldn't swing it yet. I loved Karen like she was my own sister much more than just a friend from back in high school she always made me feel welcome.

Larry, Julie, Jason and Linda,
On behalf of Karen's cousins in the Panicucci family, we are deeply saddened to hear of Karens passing. So many years have passed since we were young yet we still fondly remember the Strother/Panicucci family gatherings. You should take comfort in knowing that God has taken her kind and loving spirit to be spread throughout heaven. God blessed us all with the time we knew her here on earth. God's love lives on eternally.

To the family and friends,
I am very sorry to hear of the loss of your loved one.
The Bible gives us hope that we will be reunited with our loved ones. Isaiah 26:19 says: " Your dead will live. My corpses will rise up. Awake and shout joyfully, You residents in the dust! For your dew is as the dew of the morning, And the earth will let those powerless in death come to life."
Until that time God can give us comfort. The Bible gives God's promise at 2 Corinthians 1:3,4 which says: " Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our trials so that we may be able to comfort others in any sort of trial with the comfort that we receive from God."
If you would like free Bible studies to bring you comfort, please ask any one of Jehovah's Witnesses to make arrangements.
