Kristen Anne "Smurf" Foraker

Kristen Anne "Smurf" Foraker, age 41, of Townsend, DE, passed away on Thursday, July 31, 2025.

Born in Wilmington, DE on June 27, 1984, she was a daughter of Betty L. (Faust) and Robert T. Foraker II.

Kristen excelled in hospitality throughout her life. She was a Customer Service Representative, Food Service Manager, and a Manager-in-Training at Wawa, most recently working at the Boyd's Corner location. She was a member of AA and her addiction was her enemy. Kristen was still always looking for a way to help others; she was a Gift of Life donor to help those who are in need.

Kristen was preceded in death by her only sister, Melissa L. Foraker; her aunt, Karen Faust; and grandparents, Betty and Carl Faust and Robert Foraker. She is survived by her mother, Betty L. Foraker; father, Robert T. Foraker II; grandmother, Carolyn C. Foraker; aunts, Yvonne Coleman (Don), Carol Johnson (Gary) and Helen Kunder (Bill); uncles, Jeff Foraker (Bobbi) and Carl Faust (Ann); boyfriend, Rich Gouge; as well as many cousins and many friends.
