Karri was a tremendous blessing to me when she came to work as my assistant at LHS. I was so very, very blessed to have her in that desk helping me. I am so very sad as I know how special she was to all those she came in contact with and how much she will be missed by her family. She was so very proud of her family. She just beamed talking about them.
