Book Reviews of With Love from Karen

Book Review: Inspiring books--more Killilea family info
Summary: 5 Stars

"Karen" and "With Love from Karen" are without a doubt two of the most inspiring books I have ever read. Marie Killilea writes with such heart and conviction about her family's experiences and personalities that the reader feels an instant kinship. Perhaps that is why it is so frustrating that so little has been written about the family's later years.

As an update, I recently learned that Gloria passed away in November 2001 at the age of 72. She was survived by her husband (Russ) and two sons, Russell and James. No daughters (Mary and Evelyn) were mentioned. According to Marie Killilea's obituary, little Marie lives in CT and occasionally comes to the Larchmont library. Karen lives/works in Westchester County. She is on the board of a children's home and works for a well-known priest who runs retreats. Rory is married with children and lives in the Seattle area. Kristin is married and lives in Westchester county.

As for why someone from NY Telephone would have had connections to literary, theatrical people, I think this came more from Marie than Jimmy. Her father was a sportswriter for the NY Sun, and there probably would have been some connections there.
