Mark & Laureen, My sincerest condolences to you and the family. Karen was a bright light to all us. Her love of art, language, travel, dance and yoga was truly inspirational. Karen was my yoga instructor for many years. She taught me that I "did not need to stand on my head or turn my body into a pretzel" to enjoy yoga practice. She truly put her students at ease with her gentle soul. I also enjoyed attending plays, musicals and concerts with her. I am a better person for having her as a friend, and for that I am grateful. She will be missed.
