To the family of Karie,
Our heart aches knowing the pain that you must be feeling right now. We pray that God will bring peace and healing to your sorrows.” Her infectious smile and laugh. She will be missed at Foster Chapel. May God continue to hold each and every one of you.

Oh, Ms. Karen, you beautiful soul...

Karen was inarguably one of the brightest lights to shine across our little slice of Whirlpooland. Her wonderful laugh, her seemingly endless positivity, and her radiating joy made her such a pleasure to work with and to know. She cared so deeply for others and always took an opportunity to check in, lend a listening ear, and give some wisdom if it was needed. Every conversation, regardless of how much time had passed, felt like picking up right where the last one had left off. In our most recent chat a couple of weeks ago, we caught up on everything—life, work, family, pets—and in every moment, she was my biggest fan. Her support and warmth always made me feel seen and valued, a gift I’ll carry with me.

Karen was truly a special woman in this world. Until next time, friend.

You can rest now sweet lady! Your spirit was filled with love and joy every day. Your smile was contagious and your laugh was infectious. You could light up any room! I appreciate the time that the lord allowed you to be in my life. You will truly be missed here on earth!

Karen was a true lady, a good friend, and a wonderful workmate.  She was always available with a smile and hug, generous to a fault, and a true believer in family, faith, and friendship.  We will miss her tremendously, but know she is truly at peace.

"Well done my good and faithful servant." is what I suspect Karen heard this week.  Her light always shone as she saw the good in everything and everything one.  I was privileged to have Karen as my first lead at Whirlpool  and then years later we were coworkers on the data base team.  
I consider myself blessed to have known and worked with Karen.  
Those who know her will certainly miss her.

I hear her laugh each time I look at this picture and will always treasure it.

These two... they had the same laugh.  I love Karen and have many great memories of her.  She has left us too soon and this old world sure needs more people like Karen in it.

My dear friend Karie! We had such good times in Highschool and being in the band and color guard. You and your flute, which I could never play. We had some awesome times with band and at band camps. Hanging with you during those years made the time go by swiftly. Thank you for being a good friend and always smiling and being a part of my big day about 35 years ago. Prayers to the family for comfort during this time.

Karen, you were the best person I knew at whirlpool.  I missed your smile and laugh when I retired.  I am so sad for your family, but at least they know your heart and soul are in a wonderful place.  You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers as they send you on.

I'm going to miss my friend so much.  When working on site at Whirlpool we'd take walks on our breaks, reminding each other when it was time.  Her infectious laugh was a blessing to me on many days.  She would tell me about her family that she loved very much & just laugh at some of the things her great niece & nephew had done or said to her.  Then we'd talk about going to the casino (she would say to me "ChaChing")! We kept in touch via text once we all started working from home (not as much as I should have & i regret, but she knew i was here).  I've been praying for the family for peace & comfort as I do not have the words to help.  
With Sincere Sympathy, 
Donna Evans

I worked with Karen for many years at Whirlpool. She was one of the most genuinely kind and considerate ladies I have ever met. Her smile would light up a room and her laughter was contagious. She was always asking about my family and offering up prayers for any need. I’m honored to have known her. She will be missed terribly. My deepest sympathy and prayers for her family.

I am genuinely sorry for your loss. It is a loss for everyone because Karen was such an amazing and wonderful lady. She brought happiness to everyone around her and she will be greatly missed.

Karen was a beautiful person.  She was always kind, and her laugh was infectious. She would always tell me, 'Alecia, you take care of you and don't you dare work too hard'.  She wanted to make sure I didn't overdo it if I was not feeling well.  She was a true team mate at work and was always kind and professional.   She will be truly missed.

My condolences to Karen's family. She was always smiling, happy, and laughing. She'll be missed.

My condolences to the family, my dear friend and classmate. Such a sweet spirit, so loving, and that laugh would make me smile every time.  Your sweet soul will be truly missed.  Rest well friend. Class of 85..

Sorry for your loss. Karen was a beautiful person and old classmate of mind when I went to Holston. I'm really sad to hear this....RIH young lady!!

Karen was such a wonderful co-worker and friend. She was truly a pleasure to work with, and I will never forget how kind she was to everyone! She was always the first to plan something for a co-worker in need or celebrate a special occasion. She also took such good care of me during my pregnancies-making sure I was comfortable, had water, etc. Even though I left Whirlpool 5 years ago, she was so good to still check in on my family and I. We would text often about Top Chef and The Amazing Race, always choosing our favorites. I will miss our chats and her texts that always began with “Hey lady!” My deepest condolences to her family and friends.

My condolences and prayers 🙏🏿💐 to the Davis Family.  Karen was a dear Holston classmate of 1985 who always carried a smile and kindness.

To Karen's family, you are all in my prayers. I pray God's comfort and peace will surround you. Karen was a light for Jesus and her presence here will be missed greatly. Her laughter was contagious and she was always so kind and giving of herself to others. She has a legacy that will live on in the memories of all she was close to. Her work family will miss her terribly, but I know she is in a better place.

What a special lady Karen was! Her smile lit up the room and her laugh was contagious. Everyone who knew Karen loved her. Her Whirlpool family will miss her dearly. My prayers are with her family and friends during this difficult time.
