Karen's greatest joy was being a mother to her three children, John, Thomas and Lauren.

She fought a courageous battle with cancer, and while she was taken from this world far too soon, the impact she made on the lives of those she knew and loved will last forever.

To ensure your generosity and support are acknowledged - and to help protect you from future solicitations - the Marhold Family has requested that memorial contributions be made through IN MEMORY OF to the following

Camp Kesem

Kesem is a nationwide community, driven by passionate college student leaders, that supports children through and beyond their parent’s cancer. They are the largest national organization dedicated to this unique population – supporting children with innovative, fun-filled programs that foster a lasting community.

Inheritance of Hope

Inheritance of Hope was created to inspire hope in young families facing the loss of a parent. They work tirelessly to provide life-changing Legacy Retreats®, Legacy Scholarships, outstanding resources, and individual and group ongoing support – spiritually, emotionally, and financially.  Inheritance of Hope services provide direct benefits for the children and a proactive, therapeutic focus for the parent.
 

Little Pink Houses of Hope

Little Pink Houses of Hope was created to promote breast cancer recovery by offering opportunities for survivors to reconnect and celebrate life.  Providing week long vacations for breast cancer patients and their families, they believe a cancer diagnosis does not just affect the patient, but the entire family. Every beach retreat is designed to help families relax, reconnect and rejuvenate during the cancer journey.
