[> I remember meeting her at Surrey and she commented later that she was nervous about coming as she would be the only black person there. That really stunned me, I hadn't seen her colour until she pointed it out to me. I really hope that is the last time she ever thought about it with any of our online community. -- PD, 10:42:00 04/18/12 Wed

[> [> I'm still choking upand crying whenever I think of or talk about her. PD, I never saw it either. I mean, I knew her color, but she was just my friend. There is no color there. Val L. made a comment at the memorial that we all have gotten to know each from the inside out, instead of the outside in, and that if we all had lived on the same block we might never have become the friends we are now. I would hape we would have anyway, but what an amazing journey the internet has taken us on. -- Maria, 17:58:59 04/18/12 Wed

[> [> It's a shame that Karen would have even thought that she might encounter prejudice, though I'm sure everyone at Surrey welcomed her with open arms. I remember when we had a fun guessing game on S&S, matching baby and childhood photos to the present-day person and Karen said she was like the free square on Hollywood Squares since everyone would match her photos without hesitation. She was funny! -- Denise, 10:44:25 04/19/12 Thu
