Karen June Strader Obituary
We are sad to announce that on December 25, 2022 we had to say goodbye to Karen June Strader of Tipton, Indiana, born in Ashmore, Illinois. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
She was loved and cherished by many people including: her parents, Joseph E. Kerans and June R. Kerans (Walden); her former husband Charles Strader; her husband Mike Trinkle; her children, John Strader (Katie Lavery), Criselda Harlow (Mike) and Sandee Strader-McMillen (Eric McMillen); her grandchildren, John Harlow (Ashley), Lukas Harlow (Kayla), Lauren McMillen (Nicholas Cameron), Elizabeth Burden (Jonathan), Emily Preston (Daniel) and Charles Elliott McMillen; her great grandchildren, James, Ethan, Caroline, Maxwell, Norah, Rachel, Hannah, Jonah and Grady; her sister Sandee Sumner; her sister-in-law Jackie Kerans; her stepdaughters, Angie Robinson (Wyatt), Lori Vancil (Michael) and Amy Archer (Shannon); her caregiver Dawn DeWitt; and her brothers, Joseph A. Kerans and Ralph Kerans.
She dropped everything to drive friends to medical appointments, bought groceries and Christmas presents for those in need, made wedding dresses for those who couldn't afford to buy them, volunteered in nursing homes, donated to children in need of surgeries and to those who serve the homeless.
