I came across this sadly having searched for Karen online as we worked together in the 90s and fell out of touch. I can't believe it Karen was such a gentle person always smiling. I will remember our memories of going out as young ones!

<p>RIP Karen</p> So very sad to hear that Karen passed away. It's a very long time since I saw Karen but seems like only yesterday she recruited me to the HR Dept in Blarney& taught me the tricks of the trade. Many a great laugh was had between Karen, Sinead, Reidin & myself. She was a beautiful person & I'm so very sorry for you all. May she rest in peace. Cara Murphy.
