Dear Members of the Class of '57,
There aren't really adequate words to express how much we appreciate the outpouring of cards and hugs we have received from the wonderful people of the Shawnee Mission High School Class of 1957. Kansas City Hospice just informed us of the very kind and generous contribution the Class of 1957 has made to them in memory of our wife and mom, Karen (Clayton) Taylor. We are honored and humbly say "THANK YOU!" Mom would be totally speechless :) Kansas City Hospice is an excellent organization and they were definitely there for us during a very difficult time. If you haven't had a chance to tour the Kansas City Hospice House, we urge you to do so. It's a beautiful and peaceful facility, full of compassionate people. Thank you again and you have our sincere gratitude and admiration. Fondly, The Family of Karen Clayton Taylor - David W. Taylor, and daughters Sheryl Bolton and Janet Goss |

Karen was committed to serving others as a tutor for Literacy Kansas City, serving on the Board of Directors for Oakshire in Overland Park, Kansas, and as a member of the Hand Bell Choir and volunteer at Church of the Resurrection.
