Unbelievabe, Karen was my employee at Trowbridge Elementary as a para.  I don't remember her telling me we went to Custer together.

Karen was a caring individual that had compassion for for the children at our school, and went out of the way to help others.  She had some hard times, but I met her at the right time, and had the opportunity to shape her future alittle.  Such a terrible loss, but she battled hard.
