Even though Karen was my dad’s cousin, because we were so close in age, I always felt like she was MY first cousin. I will surely miss her jovial presence at our Leafgreen gatherings and her sharing of news about Jandra and Penny. My deepest sympathy–this has been an unbelievably rough year for the family.
Karen will be greatly missed. A heart of gold!
Karen Leafgreen McCann was a very special cousin. She knew the joys of growing up with the last name Leafgreen and we both enjoyed hearing stories about the Leafgreens, especially those about our fathers as boys. The last time I talked to her, she asked me to write about the women in the Leafgreen family. I regret that I have not done so. I will miss her beautiful smile and ready laugh and miss sharing Leafgreen stories.
Karen was a great boss to work for, she was always there for me on a professional and personal level. She will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with Bob and the rest of the family.
