KAREN LOUISE POWELL

February 24, 1960 – October 19, 2025


It is with deep sadness we announce the passing of Karen Louise Powell peacefully with her beloved husband by her side on Sunday, October 19, 2025.

Karen was born on February 24, 1960, and leaves behind her husband of 44 years, Dan; and her sons, Adam (Lyndsay) and Jason; grandchildren, Parker, Dani, Alex, Rylan, and Mikey. She also leaves behind her mother Sylvia; sister Kathy; brother Jim; sisters-in-law, Peggy and Diane; brothers-in-law, Murray and Scott; nieces, nephews, and many friends.

Karen is predeceased by her father Bill.

Karen was an amazing friend, incredible cook and mother to her two sons. She was extremely proud of her sons, and all their accomplishments in life, and even more excited to be called Nana by her 5 grandchildren. Karen was the ultimate organized Mom, party host, all while keeping a very immaculate home, yard, and pool. Karen was blessed with the fruits of their hard work, and Karen and Dan travelled the world extensively with friends and family. She loved all their destinations, Hawaii being her favorite of them all. Karen and Dan enjoyed their beautiful home in Goodyear Arizona, and their happy place at the Lakehouse on Black Sturgeon, Ontario, they welcomed many families and friends for visits. Her passion for golf and loved the opportunity to play anytime, with friends in Winnipeg and Arizona. Curling was another pastime she loved to watch the grand slams, men’s, and women’s that was her jam. There is a big hole in our hearts and lives, with the loss of someone that was loved by so many, she always made you feel welcome. The Family would like to extend their gratitude to the staff of Cancer Care Manitoba, and St. Boniface Palliative Ward, and all the friends that took the time to visit Karen during those long days. Dan’s brother Scott and Diane for your card games up until the last few weeks. The numerous friends that kept a vigil round the clock, you know who you are, you kept Karen comfortable and her spirits up. To a very special person who came into Karen's life for a short time, Justina, we are forever grateful for your kindness, and caring ways to make Karen and our mom, more comfortable in her last months with us. Karen was always thankful to those that took the time to visit, and when you were leaving, she would thank you and tell her how much she loved you.

A private family interment will take place, and a celebration of life will be planned for a future date.

In lieu of flowers donations can be made to Cancer Care Foundation www.cancercarefdn.mb.ca
