Karen Lynn Williford, age 72, of South Bend, IN was suddenly called to her eternal home on October 17th, 2025, at Memorial Hospital when her spirit and body made the ultimate decision to be with her late beloved husband, Charles Williford, whom she has anxiously awaited the last 2 years since his passing.
Karen is survived by her precious son, Kristopher (Simone) Williford SR, and her 6 adored grandchildren NaNa Colon, Katt Colon, Kris Williford JR, Kamden Williford, Odin Williford, and a 6th grandchild who was due within the week.
Karen was a very beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and friend who will be truly missed. When not with her grandbabies, you could find both her and Charlie at their second home in Wildwood resort where most of their time and summers were spent with dear friends and loved ones. Karen was loved more than could ever be put into words and her sudden passing only conveys how powerful those words really are. We love you Karen, and miss you every day.
In keeping with Karens' wishes, there will be no service held at this time. Hahn Funeral Home has been entrusted with the final arrangements and extends their deepest sympathies to the Williford family
