Karen created and moderated the Facebook groups “Sault Ste. Marie JobShop” as well as “Sault Lost and Found”.
Karen enjoyed going to camp, riding the pontoon and spending time with close friends, Judy and Orlando at camp. Karen was a joy to be around and quick to compliment everyone around her. She had a passion for bling and sparkling things.
Karen struggled but fought diligently for over 26 years battling several different cancers from Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, lung and kidney cancer and squamous cell carcinoma.
At Karen’s request, no services will take place. Cremation has taken place. Memorial donations to the Conservative Fund Canada (Conservative Party of Canada) payable by cheque only or the charity of choice would be appreciated by the family.
