Karen Gordon Luck

Karen Gordon Luck, age 77, passed away on June 1, 2025, in St. George, Utah. She was born on March 13, 1948, in Salt Lake City, Utah, to Wallace Ralph ("Flash") Gordon and Genevieve ("Jill") Bytendorp.

Karen was previously married to Thomas Moth Iversen, with whom she had two daughters. She later married Steven A. Luck, and they were together for 31 years before divorcing. She graduated from West High School in 1966, where she was active in the Pep Club and served as Senior Class Secretary. She greatly enjoyed organizing class reunions and treasured her lifelong friendships.

Throughout her career-working as a real estate agent, owner of Ivel Construction, and in inside sales at IPaper-Karen was known for her strong work ethic, integrity, and ability to make lasting friendships. More than anything, she would want others to know that she was a devout Christian who loved God and worked to serve Him every day. She found joy in sewing, crafts, gardening, and serving those around her.

Karen is survived by her daughters, Lori Harward-Stenquist (Jeff) and Lisa McCarron (Patrick); and five grandchildren. She is also survived by her siblings: brothers Kim Gordon and Steve Gordon (Bridgette); her twin sister, Sharon Gardner (Rick); and her sister Patricia Platts (Dan).

She was preceded in death by her parents.
