To Kari’s family,
I am so saddened by the tragic news of Kari’s passing. I have many fond memories of our times together in Silver Springs … our mutual love of being “art geeks” …. trips to Calaway Park … and general teenage mayhem.
She was a sweet soul who emanated kindness and peace.
May your memories bring you comfort at this sad sad time.
A kindred spirit, a friend, sister, daughter, aunty and mom. The world loses yet again. My deepest sympathy to all family and those that were able to remain close not only to Kari but all of you.
God Bless

This is so sad. I can’t believe Kari is gone. I have great memories of her from when we were good friends as kids and teenagers. She was a great gal, and gone way too soon. My condolences to the Savages and her husband and daughter.

It has been 20+ years since I “worked” with Bill and Cindy at the Paskapoo Ski Club. Kari was a great kid to have around the team and always worked hard at her skiing. All these years later, memories of those ski days flood back.

Dear Friends
So saddened to hear of Kari’s passing.
She will be remembered every time she paint’s Gods Sunrises and Sunsets.
Larry, Riley, Cindy, Bill, and the entire Savage family,
I wanted to pass on my deepest sympathies on the sudden passing of Kari. I knew Kari through elementary and junior high. I remember some very fond moments playing at each others houses as we lived across the street and I remember the birthday parties as well as fun in the backyard pool. She always had a caring heart and always had smile on her face. Our thoughts and our prayers go out to you.
Kara
Cindy and family,
I was shocked and terribly saddened when I heard about Kari’s sudden passing. I remember all the school days when you and Patty Louis and I walked our kids to the bus in front of Mary’s house for kindergarten and also seeing Kari as part of my daughter’s life over the years. My heart goes out to you all. Kari was far too young to go and I am sure you are just devastated by your loss! Thinking of you, Ev
Riley, Larry and Family.
You guys were a second family to me. I loved and cherished deeply everymoment I spent with Kari. I greated her as mom, and visited her often. It saddens me greatly to hear about her passing. I wish she rest in peace with her son, Conner and I wish the best to the family. Kari is a woman I will never forget.
I send my condolences to you and your family on the news of your lovely daughter, Kari’s passing. Cindy, I know it has been a number of years since we last spoke but I will always remember Kari’s sweet face and her love of conversation, even in those early years.
Words fall short of expressing my deep sadness for your loss.
Thinking of you and the family at this very difficult time.
