My name is Bill Theodore and I worked with
Karen Kayser in 1963 as a page. I just read
this beautiful story of friendship, love and
compassion and have taken the liberty to try
and get in touch with Karen through this
vehicle. If you would pass this e-mail to her I would be very appreciative.

What a remarkable friendship Karen and Ann
had.

Thanks for your sweet comment–you are 100% right, Karen DID try to live up to her friendship, and still does to this day! I will let her know you were touched by her story. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts with us! And for reading our memoir! All best, Liz on behalf of her siblings

I’ve been reading the stories on this site for about 30 minutes now, and after reading Karen Kayser’s story, I have tears rolling down my cheeks. Oh, to have a friend like her (or Ann Williams Welch)! I didn’t really have a good or bad feeling about Karen after reading the book, but here, it’s plain to see that Karen really tried to live up to her friendship with Ann and help the kids wherever she could. What a amazing woman.

I am currently working on their book “The kids are all right” and I am enjoying the adventures. The Welch kids have come along way. And I am sure they are proud of their successes.

I was a big fan of Ann Williams, I always remembered her as Maggie Fielding on The Doctors. I, too, like Karen, was amazed at her kindness. I remember writing a dan letter to her and only maybe about 10 days later, she sent me a beautiful picture of her standing next to her horse, I was so surprised and so grateful. I was so saddended to learn of her death back then, and I am so touched to read this story now, I hope her children are all doing fine and they must be so proud that their Mother was so fondly thought of by so may people.

I read a an excerpt from “The Kids Are All Right” in the October issue of Glamour Magazine. I was so touched by the Welch family’s tragic story that I searched the Internet, hoping to find out the name of the actress who was the mother of the four Welch children. Karen Kaiser’s story adds another dimension. I can see that she still feels the loss of her special friend. How pleased Ann Williams would be to know that she’s so fondly remembered after 23 years. We should all be so fortunate!
