Karen Cahal Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Karen's life was filled with warmth, kindness, and the simple joys that brought her peace. She will be remembered for the love she gave so freely, the beauty she found in nature, and her nurturing spirit. To those who knew her best, Karen's presence was as gentle as the butterflies and hummingbirds she adored. She was the heart of her family, and always put the needs of others before her own. Her family finds comfort in knowing that her spirit will continue to be with them, bringing light to the quiet moments, and that her love will continue to live on through the memories of those who knew her.
A celebration of Karen's life will be held on October 25, 2025 where family and friends will be able to gather to honor and remember her. Please contact the Cahal family for more details pertaining to this event. Matteson Funeral Home is honored to serve Karen's family and the community.
