Karen Boggan Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Born on March 30, 1982, in Cleveland, OH, Karen lived a brief but impactful life that touched many in her community.
She is survived by her loving husband, Jerry Boggan, and her precious children, Tyrell, Shyanne, Ethan, and Mylah. Karen was also a cherished mother-in-law to David Kitts Jr. and Daven Allen.
Karen will be deeply missed by her siblings April Smith, Shawn Ramsey, and Nick Smith, as well as her adored nieces and nephews: Justin Williams, Jacob Matthews, Caitlyn Matthews, Willow Faye, and Keira Smith. Her one grandchild, Harmony Marie Allen, will remember her with love and fondness.
Preceding her in death were her mother, Beulah Sandra Vipperman Smith, and her father, Delmas Ray Ramsey.
A celebration of life officiated by Pastor Larry Melton, will be held 2:00pm, Monday, August 18, 2025, at El Bethel Baptist Church - 116 Billy Goat Bridge Rd., Gaffney, SC 29340.
Karen's spirit and kindness will remain with us forever. We appreciate all the love and support we've received during this difficult time.
