They had a passion for the Egg Stop’s Breakfast Burritos and Zeke’s coffee. They also loved to shop for our farm fresh eggs and local produce. It was Karen who helped secure our original Market site outside the old Pumpernickel’s Deli, in October of 2007. When a county official insisted we would not be able to find a site or enough farmers, Karen proved they were wrong. Karen was a fighter; she was passionate about gardening, sculpture, and leftover French fries for breakfast. She particularly loved swimming in her backyard pool in Brookeville. We will miss her dearly.
