With profound sadness we announce the passing of Karen Louise Whitman (nee Helfrich), born October 8th, 1947, in Vancouver, BC. Predeceased by parents Ken and Bernadette Helfrich, brother Ken and sister Denise. Survived by husband Ron, stepchildren Linda (Ken), David (Michelle), siblings Dan (Monique), Lynn (Ed), Lori (Tony) and John, grandchildren Braden, Garret, Sarah, Alanah, and Miranda and many nieces and nephews, who knew Karen as "GAK" (Great Auntie Karen).
Karen spent her youth growing up in Oak Bay and always referred to it as her "happy place". In 1969 Karen relocated to Vancouver. In 1987 she married the love of her life Ron and spent the remainder of her years in the Deep Cove area.
Karen was a wonderfully kind and caring person who loved her family and friends. To know Karen was to love Karen. Forever in our hearts.
