Thank you Ms. Kathleen Mills-Hoting for ur posting of Karin's passing. I've known Karin since the late 60's, as she lived a block down from me. Karin and i have always kept in touch touch with each other, and at least once a month would text or call each other. I reached out to her on Mother's Day, with a "gif" wishing her a happy Mothers Day, expecting a reply back that day, as was always the case. Three days later, i saw ur post, that she had passed away.
Karin and i would always have lengthy and interesting conversations about everything. My fondest and most cherished memory about those conversations was that we always ended with telling each other, that we loved each other.
Life can't get any better than having such a dear, sweet, and authentic friend as her. I will miss our texts and phone calls. I love u Karin,and thanks for the joy of having known you.
