She will forever be remembered by her beautiful smile and incredible sense of humor. Karen loved the Lord and found comfort knowing her life was in the Lords hands. Her goal was to always lift others up, through making the laugh comforting them and being someone they could talk to.
She loved her two children, Justin Spangenberg and Sarah Smith, with all of her heart and was always telling others how proud and happy she was to be their mother. Karen brought joy to her family as well as friends.
Her life will be celebrated by having Mass at St. Michael's Church, 40501 Hayes Rd. Sterling Heights, Michigan 48313.
