I have known the Maggard family most of my life when I enrolled at Green Elementary School while in the second grade. I remember Karen as being kind, smart,quiet and true, never putting on for anyone. She was and still is a beautiful blonde. I am truly sorry for David’s passing and I wish there was more I could do for the family. This is a great sadness and there will dark times ahead, but know sweet Karen I will always be there to listen if you ever need a should to lean on. You will see him again.
