My sincere sympathy to Karen's family and friends. Karen and I graduated together in 1975. She was always upbeat, smart, smiling and classy. One could always feel welcome in her presence. May you find peace each day with the knowledge that Karen touched so many in a positive way. Kathy Kittell

I remember Karen from school and from growing up in one of the most special places in this world. The pretty picture and lovely smile remind me of the Karen I knew. I am sorry she is gone and that breast cancer took her from her family, as it did my girlfriend in 2010. Despite spending billions of dollars, the reality is we've really made pitiful progress in ending this disease. In Karen's memory and the memory of all this disease has taken from us, let''s resolve ourselves to ending breast cancer. The answer is out there and it's time we put the focus on curing breast cancer and saving lives rather than making pharmaceutical companies successful. Our goal is to end this disease and I hope more people will push for real cures rather than the tragic failure we've seen. Karen, rest in peace while we continue your battle and achieve the ultimate victory over breast cancer.

There was not a lovelier, kinder woman. She loved her daughter deeply and showed great support to me and my daughter as well. This is a great loss to everyone. I am terribly sorry.

Karen and I were childhood friends because our mothers were girlfriends and we lived in the same neighborhood. I must have walked to her house a million times and ate at her table even more. Her mother, Rosie was a second mother to me and a GREAT cook. I still eat Syrian bread today, even though it's now called pita bread. I remember playing hide and seek in her back yard behind the apple trees, we were all skinny enough back then! I even remember playing pin the tale on the donkey at one of Karen's birthday parties because I was so excited that I won the prize. Birthday parties were BIG events in our neighborhood! And who could forget the famous "Coffee Hour" our mothers held each month when we got to play together on a week night! But most of all I remember playing games on her front porch for hours. She had the best games, Candyland, Operation, Checkers, Bingo, Monopoly and more. And she was SO GOOD at all of them. We would play for hours! She was always kind and considerate and would even let me win sometimes! I will treasure these precious memories of growing up with Karen in a quaint town during simpler times. You were a great friend and a beautiful woman! I will see you again one day and we will play in Paradise! Heaven has a new Angel and her name is Karen Cartin. Love, Anita Cordeiro

My deepest sympathies to Margaret, Kristina, Nicholas, Michael and the light of her life, Nico. Karen was loved by so many people for her beautiful heart and spirit. She was a courageous woman who treasured her family and friends and left everyone she met feeling happier for knowing her. This world is a better place for the light this beautiful woman shined upon it. I will miss our late night chats and especially your laughter. My prayers are with her family and friends that God will strengthen them as they go through the next few days. God bless you all. Anita Cordeiro Boca Raton, FL

Karen was truly a special person. She was the first person you saw when entering Lincoln School and she was beyond wonderful for that position, where her genuine care and concern for every girl was evident. I always enjoyed stopping and talking with Karen, although Red Sox were a favorite topic for both of us. My thoughts and prayers are with her family - Karen touched and inspired more people than most of us ever do. She will be missed.
