Karen King died peacefully in St. Joseph’s Hospital North at the age of 74. Karen was born Mantua Ohio in 1940. She was married to her loving husband, Bart for 54 years. Karen and Bart enjoyed a wonderful life together raising their two children, Kevin and Jeff. Karen loved to cook, sew dolls, travel, and spend time with family and friends. Her children remember her as the most loving, caring, kind and patient mother anyone could ask for. She was always someone anyone could count on to brighten their day. A light is from our household gone, a voice we loved is stilled, a place is vacant in our home, which never will be filled. God gave us a beautiful mother, a mother who never grew old. You were always there with a helping hand, help us now to accept his plan. We miss you now, our hearts are sore, as time goes by we will miss you more. Your loving smile, your gentle face, no one can ever take my mother’s place. We love you mom. Thank you to all the caring doctors, nurses and staff at St. Joseph’s Hospital North.
