In Loving Memory

Karen Roach

Many of you may have met or spoken with Karen throughout the last few years. This past Saturday, she passed away after a short illness. Her love for Barry's music was always in the forefront of her life. She loved Paradise Cafe the most and enjoyed listening to it on a regular basis. Her kindness and her compassion for others will be dearly missed. Her laughter and her sense of humor always brightened my day.

Please pray for David and for her family. It was sudden and unexpected and you can imagine how heartbroken all of them are.

You can leave a condolence message if you would like. I know David would appreciate it. Here is the link:

Memorial Scrapbook

Thanks to Debi Vanden Berg who was responsible for the major portion of the scrapbook and to everyone who contributed photos, we have completed Karen's Memorial Scrapbook. After the Bash, we will mail the book to David so that he can have a great memory of their times together with Barry and their friends. Here is the finished product below. Again...thanks to everyone for making this possible.


So I'll go on
Enjoying every lovely day
Because I'm sure
You would've wanted it that way
And when there's sorrow it's no more than I can bear
Because you are, and always were, and always will be there
