Karen Hassinger

Karen enjoyed working with children and taught Sunday School and Vacation Bible School at her church. Anyone with a problem found Karen a willing ear, a good listener. She was always looking her best with the prettiest nail color. Karen was born with a disability, Spina Bifida. With patience and perseverance she overcame and learned to walk with leg braces. She was a graduate of the Widener School for Disabled Children and went on to college in Johnstown, Pa. rnKaren was predeceased by her best friend, her mother, Theo and father, Joseph. Survivors include four brothers: Ronald, Joseph, Forrest and Kenneth, a sister, Pamela Mayer, and several nieces and nephews.rnCome celebrate her 62 spunky years Wednesday at 6 PM at Daley Life Celebration Studio, 1518 Kings Hwy., Swedesboro where friends may call from 5:30PM. Donations through spinabifidaassociation.org will be appreciated.rn

    I’ll always remember in your younger years racing your wheelchair through the mall as we shopped. Spunky energetic and full of life. I know now you are just running around everywhere. You will always be remembered! Love Yarnrn”A”rn

    To know her was to love her. Her kindness made her the special person she was. She is an angel now dancing in heaven with her mother (my grandmom). I love and miss her dearly.

    When I see the Moon I see your face, and the stars remind me of your sparkling smile. Wen I hear the birds chirping and the Sun is shining, I can hear your voice and when the birds soar I think of you walking around in heaven. You will always be in my heart! Love, Your Sister Pam
