I am sorry to report that Kara Vivienne Conrad passed away this morning at 5:44am in Obici Hospital, Suffolk, VA. She succumb to respiratory and liver changes that led to a heart attack. She had an Advance Directive that prohibited viewing of her body and memorial services. She also directed that she was an organ donor and that her remains be cremated. Kara was a good woman and great wife of nearly 41 years. I will mourn and miss her!!
