Dear Partney Family,
I am so sorry about Karen's passing. I always liked her especially her sense of humor. We attended high school together and I really enjoyed spending time around her. As she got older I especially envied and admired her excellent work ethic!!! It was rare! Karen brought a lot of joy to many folks! She will be missed and forever remembered!
You are in my thoughts and prayers. I pray God will comfort you and give you a measure of peace during this very difficult time.

So sorry for your loss. Karen worked at Baxter Retirement when my mother -in-law (Bob s Mom) was there. I had no idea she was your daughter and sister. Praying for you during this difficult time.

My sincere condolences to the family during this very difficult time. We all look forward to the day when those in the memorial tombs will hear Jesus’ voice and come out (John 5:28,29). Until that day, may the God of all comfort grant you peace (2 Corinthians 1:3,4) while your fond memories of Karen bring you joy.
Karen, you’ve always had a special place in my heart. I will miss you terribly my sweet friend.
I’m sorry to hear of Karen’s passing. I have fond memories of her when I was a kid and she lived in the cabin and worked at the Cottage Inn. She was a kind person. Thinking of your family during this difficult time.
I also enjoyed working with Karen from 2002 till 2007.We shared a lot of laughs and I will never forget her baking me a beautiful doll cake for my Birthday one year.
I am so very sorry for your loss..It was a pleasure to have worked with Karen...Yoy And Your Family are in my thoughts and prayers.
