Throughout Karen's short time on earth, she attended several Billings public schools and graduated from West High in 1967. Karen was a devoted wife and mother who worked from home so that she could be there for her family. He second love was doing the Lord's work. She enjoyed cooking and baking for serveral local churches, donated some her time to Deaconess Hospital and, until her passing, cleaned the church in Ballantine.
