This is awful news, and it gives me a feeling of deja vu. Earlier this year, I was looking forward to seeing magic111 again at the BRT weekend in NYC; but he died suddenly, a few months before the event.
This time around, I was looking forward to seeing KLC again at the Krakow Do (a couple of weeks from now), only to learn that she has passed away.
May she rest in peace; and condolences to her family and friends.
I am reminded of the fragility of life and the arrogance of taking it for granted.

I am so sorry to hear this. Condolences to her family and friends.
It seems like yesterday that we were all crammed into a small
vehicle scarfing down malasadas, getting cinnamon sugar all
over each other, and laughing like idiots.

I just sent a number of pictures of Karen from a variety of DO's. As Carol mentioned, they need these for the service. If you can take a few minutes and locate some, pls PM me and I'll give you her daughter-in-law's e-mail.
Thanks.

I first met Karen years ago in south Florida, and at just about every FT Do I attended from then on. She was a joyous, generous and caring person, and I have happy memories of each trip we shared together.
What a sad loss for her family.

Motley indeed ... But that's FT right? And one of the great pleasures is meeting people such as Karen down here in Oz ... My thoughts go out to her family ... She was a gentle, generous spirited person.
