Remembering: Karen Hamlett

Sincere condolences to the family of Karen Hamlett

I was so saddened to hear that Karen had passed away. I have known her for a long time. We were friends in High School. She was a quiet,well mannered person. Very soft spoken. Then in later years we both became LPN's. We worked together at Summit Manor nursing home for several years. She was a very good nurse. My sincere condolences goes out to the whole family. She will be greatly missed by many. She was a great person and my dear friend. I'll miss you Karen.Love,

from Sharon Moss Burton
