It is with deep sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Karen McGregor, a beloved wife, mother, and grandmother, who died this morning surrounded by her loving family. Her loss is felt profoundly by all who knew her, leaving a space in their lives that cannot be filled.
Karen will be remembered for the love and devotion she showed to her family above all else. As a wife, she was a constant source of strength and partnership.
