RIP KLC
 

Alex just sent me a very sad email:

I'll post here when I have more information.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you :(

Sad news indeed... :(

My deepest condolecences to her family.

Very sad and shocked to hear of Karen's passing. I met her at various Ozfests and she was always so sweet.

My condolences to her family.

:(

KLC was a wonderful person I had the pleasure of spending some time with in Venice, Israel, and Florida (three times).

We are all poorer for her having passed away.

My condolences to all her friends and family. RIP. :(

I am so sad. Karen was the first FT friend I ever met. We flew together to VCE in 2004.

A great and smart woman and I am so glad she found happiness with her new husband, Alex. My condolences to him and her family.

I hope to learn more. Am hitting the road right now but will check back.

This is shocking news. :(
I too knew her as a very sweet, kind person, and was expecting to see her in the Seattle area in October.

KLC, rest in peace.

I met her numerous times as well in South Florida, Venice and other places around the world, and I always looked forward to seeing her again.

I am tremendously saddened by this news.

Rest in peace, Karen.

Unfortunately, none of these links work any more.

She took a great photograph of me, the wife of magic111 and vasantn in Venice and “burned” some compact discs of her photographs for us.

I know there are plenty of photographs of Karen on the Internet, if anyone would like to post one here in this thread in her remembrance...

Very sad to hear of this! She was among the first FT'ers I ever met in person and she brightened up every one of the DO's where we were together.

My sincere condolences to her friends and family.

I was sorry to hear the news. RIP

Condolences to the family for their loss. :(

Perhaps chrissxb knows of some from recent France do?

Here's one of my favorite pictures of KLC (in lavender on the right for those who haven't met her in person) celebrating along with some other friendly FT'ers:

Such sadness. We have tears in our eyes. Our hearts go out to Alex, Linda, and her family.

Karen was a wonderful person to be around. I have fond memories of the time spent together in BsAs a few years ago. Condolences to her family.

I'm so sorry to hear this. Karen was always a joy to be with. My condolences to her friends and family.

Very sad news, indeed. My condolences.

Karen was a lovely woman with whom I enjoyed spending time. Her family is in our thoughts and prayers.

She was a lovely, gentle lady. Anyone who met her liked her. This news makes me sad. I appreciate the family letting her FlyerTalk family know in the midst of their own grief.

Devastating news. Karen had such a joyous zest for life and wonderful sense of humour. My heartfelt condolences to Karen's family, her nearest and dearest

What sad news. I met Karen in Venice and she was a bright and shining asset to our little Do. Lovely woman. My heart goes out to her family.

Very sad news. My condolences to her family. I met Karen at several DOs over the years and she was always warm, friendly and welcoming to everyone.

I'd met Karen way back at OP's TLS Airbus FT Do in Toulouse in '07, my first overseas FT Do, and enjoyed meeting her at the event.

Here's a group photo with sadly other FTers in it who are no longer with us. :(

Sad news indeed. My condolences to her family.

itsaboutthejourney is away from FT at the moment, but asked me to convey his feelings of shock and sorrow.
Sympathies to her family, and may we all take comfort in our memories of Karen's graciousness and life joy.

What she said.

RIP KLC...

Oh how sad, I will always remember Karen from one of the first PBI meets. RIP Sweet Karen. :(

I am shocked to hear the news. :(

I first met her at my first international FT Do. Along with other FT people. Karen always had a great smile and always great to be around. A very gentle and sweet woman. She will be missed as part of the FT family.

My condolences to her family. :(

This was taken in one of the ATL SkyClubs. I was fortunate enough to spend time with Karen at a few DOs. A lovely, classy woman. She'll certainly be missed by everyone, including her FT family.

Very sad news. I had the pleasure of meeting Karen about three years ago on a flight. She was very kind and we kept in touch after. Terrible news. She will be missed.

A motley crew if I ever did hang out with one. So sad to hear of karen's passing. She will be missed.:(
