Who hath not own’d,
with rapture-smitten frame,
The power of grace, the magic of a name?

Thomas Campbell (1777-1884)
Pleasures of Hope


This website chronicles the families of Karen Brown Monsen and Anders Monsen, past, present, and future. By having existed and remaining in our hearts, you will exist forever. Everlasting. Immortal.


The quote used since this webpage was started in 1998,
“to live in the hearts we leave behind is not to die,” is attributable to Thomas Campbell from his Hallowed Ground.
