Karen Ruthann Pasnecker

Karen Ruthann Pasnecker passed away peacefully at home on March 7, 2026, surrounded by the thoughts, prayers, and love of those who cared deeply for her.

Born in Racine, Wisconsin on January 22, 1950, Karen shared a beautiful life with her husband Alan, whom she married and cherished until his passing in 2015. Together they created a home filled with warmth, memories, and joy. She took great pride in caring for her beloved home in Rib Mountain, where she found simple pleasures in watching the local wildlife that visited her backyard. In quieter moments, she immersed herself in the many mafia novels she loved to read.

Karen was preceded in death by her husband Alan, her parents, and her brother Harold. She is survived by her daughter Jodi (Brian) Woellner, her cherished grandchildren Leah (Alexander) Attoms and Leo (Desirae Duranceau) Woellner, her brothers Donald, John, and Anthony, and her sisters Pam and Penny.

She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered.
