Fitting of her Valentine’s birthday, Karen was a lover of many things—especially her Mom’s red velvet cake. Karen held a special place in her heart for animals, gardening and OSU football. Her favorite place on earth was the beach, specifically Myrtle Beach, SC. Above all else, Karen loved her family and helping others. While working in various administrative professional roles, most notably payroll and HR, Karen still managed to give her time, heart, and money to various charities. She had unwavering Faith and was an active member of St. Matthew Catholic Church.
Karen is preceded in death by her aforementioned parents. Left to cherish her memory are her daughter, Jennifer (Kirk) Miller; and her siblings, Cheryl Shimer, Mike Unverzagt, John (Christine) Unverzagt, and Joe Unverzagt.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in Karen’s name to The Humane Society or Mid-Ohio Foodbank.
A visitation for Karen will be held on Saturday, February 3, 2024 9:30 AM - 10:30 AM at Schoedinger Northeast on 1051 E Johnstown Rd, Gahanna, OH 43230 followed by an 11:00 AM Memorial Mass at St. Matthew Catholic Church on 807 Havens Corners Rd, Columbus, OH 43230.
