Karen was preceded in death by her parents, Walter and Florence Meyer; brother, Rodney Meyer; two sisters, Patricia Johnson (Meyer) and Marlene Roscher (Meyer); and her husband, Glenn Joseph.
She is survived by her sister, Melba Merrick (Meyer); along with several cousins, nieces, nephews and great nieces and nephews who loved her dearly.
Karen lived a life marked by compassion, curiosity, and quiet strength. A deep thinker with a hint of sass, she brought warmth and wit to those lucky enough to know her. She had a passionate love for animals, her church, and the thrill of sports cars, and she never passed up the chance to enjoy some online shopping.
Her selflessness defined her. Karen was always willing to lend a hand to anyone in need. She dedicated the majority of her career to Commerce Bank.
Karen will be remembered most for her unwavering devotion to her animals, her faith, and her commitment to helping others. The love she poured into those around her will continue to live on through the many lives she touched.
