Karen Marie Beaudet, a strong and independent woman who brightened the lives of everyone she met, passed away on July 9th, 2025, in Concord, NH. Born in Franklin, NH on October 27th, 1954, she was a proud graduate of Franklin High School, where she made many memories and lasting friendships.
Throughout her life, Karen was known for her fierce spirit and unwavering determination. Her family fondly remembers her as a fierce protector and loving confidante.
Those left to cherish her memory, are her loving siblings: her brothers Rick Beaudet and his wife Debbie from Tilton, NH, Rob Beaudet and his wife Wendy from Franklin, NH, her sisters Bonnie Beaudet from Tilton, NH, and Brenda Beaudet from Killeen, TX. While her heart was big enough to hold her family close, she also had room for the world, nurturing a special friendship with Jeannie Keyes, her best friend forever who was by her side through thick and thin. She also had a special love for all her cats, each one holding a piece of her heart, and her love for them embodied the compassion she extended to everyone around her.
Karen was preceded in death by her beloved parents, Gerald P. Beaudet and Anita L. Beaudet, as well as her siblings Diane Miller and Jerry Beaudet.
As we remember Karen, let us celebrate the joy she brought into our lives and the strength she inspired in others. She will be sorely missed but forever cherished in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know and love her.
