Disclaimer

I make no profit whatsoever off of anything related to The Carpenters or their music. The only profit I get from this is what all of us have had all these years the joy and smiles their music has given each of us and hopefully it will always continue to be a joyful experience for each of us.

In Loving Memory Of Karen

Her voice was so wonderful! The smiles that shown as they entertained each of us for so many years was heartfelt. We were all drawn into them and so many of us still are! Why does death come to claim one when they are so loved and so young?!

I remember the day I heard of her death, my tears poured so hard at the news. My sister had come down and I clung to her and begged her to stop doing what she was doing for I feared for her life as she had the same problem that had cost Karen her life.

The music still lives on to this day no matter how much time passes you cannot kill great music! Maybe if so many had not adored her so much she might still be here I guess we will never ever know the truth of that. I hope she has so much peace now and is filling heaven with those beautiful vocal tones I am listening to even now.

We might never have met you, but even for the ones who never did you are deeply missed Karen.
