I miss Kari and think of her often.  I hope she and my husband are enjoying reminiscing about all our wonderful times we spent together.  I am so blessed to have known Kari and had her a part of my life!

Kari used to babysit my kids. She was always thoughtful and so kind to everyone. She worked with Cheryl at the daycare and my kids loved her. We bought eggs from her and my daughter has very fond memories of her.

I’m remembering such good times with Kari.  I’m so sorry for your unbelievable loss. Kari was special…generous, loving, funny and beautiful. Sending my love to Steve, Per, Cameo, Karina and all her family.

So sorry for your loss. I only met Kari a couple of years ago in Pedasi. She was such a kind a loving person. I have a sea glass necklace she made that I receive many compliments on when wearing it; I will cherish it now, more than ever, along with the fond memories of her. 🥰

Our hearts are broken for the loss of our dearest, sweetest friend.  Kari was beautiful through and through, always smiling and loving life.  Her devotion and love for Steve and her children was endless.  Missing her every day…..there is a void that can not be replaced!

She was the really cute girl walking down the halls of my high school. As Kari being a year younger, I remember a lot of us boys asking each other “Hey, who’s that pretty girl?” 

I was actually a friend of her eventual husband Steve who was in my class. I hope my “cute” description is acceptable to the family but feel a memory of youth is in keeping respect.

I first met Kari at the Sports Club in Pedasí, Panama where Steve & her stayed for a few months each year. I knew from the start we would be friends. She made me a sea glass necklace which I still have. Later she and Steve moved down the street from us in Pedasí. They invited us to come swim in their pool anytime if the gate was open and my husband & I would walk down to their home to swim quite often. Loved her Norwegian waffles. She was a beautiful friend and I will miss her terribly. I thank God I got to know her.
