Ray, Jeff, and Julia, my deepest condolences to you. I was shocked and so saddened to hear of Karen's passing. Although it's been over twenty years since we've been in touch, I've thought of you all often over the years. I'll always remember with great fondness the times I spent with your family in your home, on the ski trip, and on the wonderful trip my mom and I took with Karen and Julia to California. Karen was an incredible person and an inspiration as a caring, enlightened, can-do woman and mom. My thoughts and sympathy are with you all.
