I heard her speaking for several webinars in Embarcadero.

This is a rare mix indeed, but Karen managed the combination effortlessly and gracefully. One gets the privilege to know such people only a couple of times in a lifetime.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15568138785014592769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2954359812249072053.post-72018891179554397602015-07-29T15:18:20.337-05:002015-07-29T15:18:20.337-05:00My thoughts and prayers are with Karen's famil...My thoughts and prayers are with Karen's family today. I am very saddened to learn of Karen's much too early passing. Once I wrote a question about some scripts, and to my surprise Karen replied and answered my question, and then followed up after that. She seemed like such a genuinely nice and caring person. She will be missed.Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13364937441190012650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2954359812249072053.post-7396441995216797482015-07-29T13:55:51.106-05:002015-07-29T13:55:51.106-05:00Condolences to Karen's family.

She was gracious enough to do a lot of free webinars which were always filled with great content and insight. This is a loss for all of us in the Oracle community. My heart goes out to those closest to her. A sad day that came way too early.Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12184354575866057215noreply@blogger.com
