"I will miss not hearing the clip-clop of your shoes as you would come to my desk for one of our many chats. I will miss hearing your infectious laugh. I will miss our Thursday night drinking club when you were meant to be going to your night classes, in short I will miss you Sparo. Thank you for being a ‘lovely lady’ who has left an imprint in my heart and mind. Love always x." Nikki

"I was so sad to hear of your terrible news. I am so sad that Karolyn is no longer with us. We all loved her, she was a beautiful person. My thoughts are with you all." Diggory and Annika

"Karolyn was a colleague when we worked together at MICP in the early 90's. For both of us it was one of our first jobs and I have such fond memories of Karolyn – she was so bright and positive and we were always laughing together. She was also very kind to all her friends. I'll be thinking of you and your family on Tuesday." Andy M

"I can't express how sad I feel. I lived with Karolyn in Finchley, when I first moved to London and she was one of the kindest people I ever knew. Truly beautiful inside and out. My deepest sympathy to her family at this sad time." Laura W

"Karolyn, you always made me feel welcome when visiting you & Woody in London, happy and cheerful. You were one in a million. Athough I haven't seen you for years, it seems like only yesterday. All my love to your family & friends." Paul ( Denmark)
