To the Weise family. Karen was a remarkable person and God has called home a true Angel. We’ll miss her Christmas family updates but are so grateful for the many years she was Mrs Claus for our grandchildren. Karen, thanks for the many acts of kindness you blessed us with. May you Rest In Peace.

Karen was my only first cousin and my oldest and dearest friend. We kept in touch over the years despite being in different parts of the country. She never complained or was negative. She called me “big guy” and I tried to be a big brother for her. Love you Karen. RIP.
She was a great friend to me in high school… thoughts and prayers are with you and family. Bob and Sharon Mock
So sorry for your loss Joanne and family.
