Karen Burgess Obituary
Karen loved to garden and watch birds. She was an excellent seamstress and an avid reader. "Harry Potter" and "The Lord of the Rings" were some of her favorites titles. She also loved her television programs, especially "The Walking Dead." One of the highlights of her life was getting to swim with the dolphins. She loved her family with all her heart and will be dearly missed.
She was preceded in death by her sister, Debbie Cline. She is survived by her children, Quentin Burgess of Jefferson City and Jessica Rombach (John) of Columbia; and two grandsons, Michael and Barret Rombach.
Graveside services will be held at 11:00 a.m. Saturday, August 13, 2022, at the Versailles Cemetery.

I am so sorry to Jessica and family. Karen was a sweet lady and I know you will miss her so much! I enjoyed all the years we spent helping as dance Moms.
