My sweet mother-in-law passed away last night. Karen wasn't just my mother-in-law, she was one of my best friends. Ever since I moved here to get married she and I have gone out to lunch on several occasions, we have gone on trips together, spent many many days together just hanging out. We loved to go to IKEA and indulge in some yummy swedish meatballs. We were big fans of the U Gymnastics, for 8 years I have gone with her, it was one of my favorite times in the year...I was always so pleased to have a mother in law that I could call my friend. Words can't begin to express my sadness today as I will miss her so much. She was a great grandma and our kids were lucky to have known her and her great example. She was a great mother to Dave and her seven other children. God bless us as we mourn her loss! Karen, we will miss you SO much... can't wait to see you again!...
