Dear Jack, Mike, Doug and Katie and families,
Even though we are unable to be with you at this time, know we are holding you close to our hearts in thought and prayer. We will hope to get to Ames this summer, when we can have a good visit. Karen was a special friend and colleague. God be with you.
In Christ, DJ and Marilyn

Jack--thoughts and prayers are with you and family during this difficult time.

Jack, Mike, Doug, Katie, and families...we are so sorry to hear of your loss. We know how deeply you will miss your wife, mom, and grandma. We remember Karen's kind, always welcoming smile, and her chuckle, which she always seemed so happy to share with all. Your parents were indeed a large part of the life of our small community and county. I remember being asked to take some photos of Jack and Karen and their grandchildren in their yard on the farm a number of years ago. It was a pleasure to meet those young people she and Jack treasured so much, and to capture memories for them that day. The video of your times together highlights the love you all shared. As an Ames native and as two ISU grads, it was good to know that Jack and Karen could be near more family and making shorter trips to Jack Trice and Hilton to support their beloved Cyclones! Again, our condolences to each of you.

Uncle Jack, Mike, Doug and Katie, my heart is with you all at this time. Every memory I have of sweet Aunt Karen is a loving and happy one. Our world was brighter and sweeter because of her.

Karen was an amazing woman. She easily shared her love for her family. She was always kind and compassionate. She made great contributions to her community and was a great friend. Karen was one of ISU's best fans. She is really missed.
Our love and prayers are on your behalf. Please accept our sympathy.
With love, Gloria Gunderson

Jack and family,
We were so sorry to learn of your loss of Karen. She was always most kind and friendly to us, her upstairs neighbors! We will miss seeing her and her beautiful smile. Hold on to your many, many memories--they will surely help you through this sad time and in the future.
Mike and Lynn Brennan

Sending my deepest sympathies to the DeWolf family. I had her company for a few years, but she was a lifetime gift that I got from the almighty god. She was a grandma to me, and I truly felt the love and affection of the DeWolf family when I was so far away from my home country.

Jack and family,. So sorry to hear about Karen. She will be missed by many. Try to remember the good times. God be will you thru this hard time.

My deepest sympathy to Jack, Mike, Doug, Katie & families. Karen was a very special lady & always willing to help in the groups she belonged to. She loved her Cyclones & now can cheer from above. God bless & hugs . Barb Bennett
