Karen will always be known for her quick wit and sarcastic humor; her loving heart and as the “Angelina’s Lady.” She worked for many years at Angelina’s and later owned the shop on West Housatonic Street.

When they retired, they moved to Florida and opened “The Shack” on the 9th Hole of the community golf course where they lived.
