In Memory of Karen George - Our Member, Our Friend

Karen was a special lady, for sure.  She is missed by her AR family.  May we all be richer for having had her influence in our lives and the honor of knowledge. 

This is a fitting and touching tribute, Brad.  Thanks for sharing.

I was only introduced to Karen with the beautiful write-up you did for her a year ago, Brad, and I'm so moved by your very touching tribute here, honoring her memory. My heart goes out to Michael, and to the friends she had here on AR. It's obvious that the legacy she left---as a mentor, a forward thinker, a selfless inspiration, a friend--- continues to live on. We have so much to be grateful for, and your tribute to Karen is a beautiful THANK YOU for such GOODNESS in our lives.

Brad-What a beautiful tribute to such a wonderful person. Karen you are missed!

I can't believe it's been a year! What a nice remembrance of Karen.

Thanks Brad, while I didn't know Karen, I do remember her passing here on the Rain.  I'm sure we all appreciate her past presence.

I know Karen made a huge impact on AR. You wrote a very touching tribute and I'm glad Michael has decided to write his reflections here as well. 

I learned alot from her & will always be grateful.  Thanks for doing the post Brad.

I wish I had gotten to know her, as I know what she is like to have cancer and I just hope I have as many friends as she did when I go.

Michael is doing such a great job keeping Karen's blog going and sharing with us.  I'm so glad he has kept it up!

Brad, what a wonderful tribute, we may never see or speak with friends we meet along the way here on A/R however sometimes those friendly comments remind us are never alone.

Prayers to Karen's family

Though I was not fortunatae enough to know Karen as I am a newbie to AR, I read the blog and I felt like I was right there with her during her ordeal.  She was an excellent writer and such a strong individual!  Thanks for sharing, Brad!

Brad, thank you for such a heartfelt tribute to Karen.  I have to go back and check out the latest on her Blog.  May her memory live on through her Family and Friends.  God Bless.

Brad, this is the essence of Active Rain. It goes beyond the issues of real estate - people here really care about each other. I came onto the scene just before Karen left us, so I do remember her, and it has been great to see Michael writing again.

Brad-- and everyone who commented:

I just wanted you to know that I sent this post to Karen's mother and father and it made two very sad people a little happier today.

Her parents are grieving so heavily...as I am...and stuff like this warms our broken hearts.

Thank you again.

Brad, I wish I knew Karen, I have read both of her blogs and few times over and you can just tell that was such a wonderful person with a great sense of humor.  She was so giving and always willing to help never wanting anything in return.  You can tell that she loved life and her Michael.  I know this from reading her blogs and from talking to people here that knew Karen. I am praying for her family during this difficult time. Thanks so much for this tribute, I am sure it means a lot to Michael and her parents.  Kate

Brad, Thanks for sharing all this wonderful information about Karen. How sad to loose such a wonderul person. My prayers are with her family and friends.

Brad, I can't believe it has been a year. Time is such a fleeting thing.

My condolences to Karen's family and friends. Thanks for remembering her Brad and sharing with us.

Brad - Great job reminding us of how Karen took the time to help anyone who would listen. She was the SEO master as far as I was concerned. We really miss her wisdom.
