Title: Always, Karen
First published: 1975
Description: At twenty years old, Karen Walker was diagnosed with terminal bone cancer.  She was a young woman who should have had her whole life ahead of her: she had loving parents, a doting fiance, and a stellar academic record.  Undaunted by her uncertain future, she and her fiance planned a wedding for December of 1970.  It was not to be.  Grief-stricken, her parents Tom and Jeanne Walker spent that Christmas Day traveling and searching for a medium who would help them contact their now-deceased daughter.  They found the Reverend George Daisley through whom Karen dictated messages from the "other side".  Through several communications-many of which contained information which only the family members would know-Karen described life "after" as well as "their" views on earth life.  What may seem as a need for closure and an end to the grief cycle is a moving parable of comfort.
