Karen F. Allen

Indianapolis

Karen F. Allen, 77, of Indianapolis, passed away on November 4, 2024, in Indianapolis, Indiana. Karen was born on August 27, 1947 in Louisville, Kentucky, to the late Raymond & Dorothy Wright. Karen's journey through life was marked kindness and a genuine love for others making her a cherished friend to many.

Karen graduated from Assumption High School in Louisville, where her warm spirit began to shine. Following her education, she pursued a successful career in banking, then transitioned to mortgage and loans, retiring from Stonegate Realty for many years, providing guidance and support to countless clients as they navigated the world of home buying and selling. Her dedication to her work reflected her desire to help others, making significant impacts on the lives of those she served.

Known for her gentle soul, Karen's personality radiated warmth, drawing people to her in both her personal and professional life. Those who had the privilege of knowing her often spoke of her kindness, patience, and empathetic nature. She had the remarkable ability to listen and understand, leaving an enduring impression on all who crossed her path. Karen was a parishioner of St. Mark Catholic Church for 20 years and St. Jude Catholic Church for 10 years. 

An avid dog lover, Karen shared a special bond with her beloved pup, Barney. Their adventures together brought great joy to her life. In quieter moments, Karen could often be found snuggled up in her favorite blanket, engrossed in watching True Crime television shows or lost in the pages of a good romance novel, embracing the stories that transported her to different worlds.

As we remember Karen, we celebrate not only her life but the light and love she brought to those around her. Cherished in our hearts, she leaves behind a legacy of compassion, joy, and the beautiful memories she created with family and friends. Her presence will be deeply missed, but her spirit will forever live on in the hearts of those privileged to know her.

Karen is survived by her loving sons; William "Mike" (Kitte) Allen and Justin (Jo Gowick) Allen, granddaughter; Savannah Allen, and brothers; Tim (Dixie) Wright and Paul (Jenny) Wright.

Karen is preceded in death by her loving husband of 54 years; Gary Allen.
