Karen Jean Moeller

Karen Moeller, 79, passed away on Friday, January 2, at the Heartford House in Owensboro. Karen Jean Adelman was born in Owensboro on December 20, 1946, the daughter of Joseph and Alice (Bristow) Adelman. Karen was preceded in death by her parents, a brother, Gary Adelman and his wife Pam and a sister-in-law, Karen Adelman.

Karen was a very loving, caring person who liked doing embroidery, hosting Mary Kay parties, feeding the ducks at Yellow Creek Park and watching the barges going up and down the Ohio River. She loved cats, helped serving meals at the Zion Church Soup Kitchen and volunteering at the Help Office. She enjoyed visiting her sister Suzanne when she was working as a Nurse on Indian Reservations in South Dakota and Arizona. She had a little mischievous nature about her while feigning innocence. She loved meeting people of all kinds and they loved her too.

She is survived by her daughter, Carol Jean Moeller, a grandson, Hunter, both of Valles Mines, Missouri; a brother, Jan Adelman, of Kingwood, Texas, and a sister, Suzanne (Greg) Oost of Lockbourne, Ohio. Also, special cousins Barbara Kast of Tell City, Indiana; Gary Chapman of Byron Center, Michigan; Lacrecia Davis of Tampa, Florida and Kevin and Debbie Smith of Owensboro. Also, numerous cousins, nieces and nephews in Kentucky, Ohio, Florida and Texas.

The family wants to give a special thanks to Owensboro Health and Rehab for the years they provided care for Karen and to the Heartford House for the special care given during her final days. Expressions of sympathy may take the form of contributions to the Owensboro Humane Society at www.owensborohumane.org.

Care by Glenn Funeral Home and Crematory.

A Celebration of Life service for Karen will be held Saturday, January 10, at 11:00 AM in the Chapel at the Roosevelt House in Owensboro.
