Karen Gabrielle Dewey, 78, of Winston-Salem, NC, passed peacefully from this life on to her heavenly home on March 23, 2022.
Karen, also known as Gabby to many family members, was born on July 5, 1943, in Washington DC. She was the only child of the late Norman N. Kerbel and E. Kathryn Kerbel.
Karen grew up in Silver Spring, Maryland, where she attended Northwood High School. After graduation, she attended Davis & Elkins College in Elkins, West Virginia. Karen had grown fond of Elkins, having spent many summers in the small town with her maternal grandparents. She loved horses, her cats, her dogs, and spending time with friends and family.
In 2012, Karen moved to Winston-Salem to be close to her grandchildren.
Karen is survived by her daughters Deborah Ann King (Ian) and Lisa Kathryn Wyatt (David), and three grandchildren, Samantha Wyatt, Kayla Wyatt, and Trevor Wyatt.
A celebration of life service will be held at Calvary Baptist Church in late May.
