Morse Bluff, NE Tuesday, November 22, 2016 Bob, I was so saddened to hear this news. Karen was a special lady. We went back as far as high school but I really got to know her while working for (and with) her at Emanuel Printing for 11 years. She was so kind and caring. I am so sorry to miss her service but we will be out of state early for Thanksgiving. God bless you in the days ahead.Linda Mason
Lyons, NE Tuesday, November 22, 2016 Bob and families, I too am so sorry for your loss. What a wonderful lady she was, I will truly miss her.Whenever I was in Fremont and she was still at Emanuel Printing I would stop in just to say "hi" and to give her a hug. When she retired we didn't see one another very often but I would call her occasionally, just to say "hi". I can't believe she is gone but I do know that she is without pain and suffering and is with her Heavenly Father. May God Bless you all as you walk through life with Karen in your hearts.
