Karen was a graduate of Savannah College of Art and Design. After graduating from SCAD, she worked at a local television station, appearing in commercials and was also a designer for a large retail department store in Savannah. Karen had a wonderful personality and "never met a stranger".
Loving animals, she recently volunteered for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). She helped collect blankets and coats for disabled and homeless veterans and was a volunteer for Relay for Life. She was inspired by, and a huge fan of, Lady Gaga.
Karen is survived by her father, Archie T. West, and stepmother, Margie L. West, of Brooklet; sisters, Christie Anderson Ringgold, Christy K. Thompson, Debra A. Strickland, Tanya C. Quick; and brother, Archie Todd West. Several aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews also survive.
Visitation will be held Friday from 1-3 p.m. at Hodges-Moore Funeral Home. A funeral service will be held Friday at 3 p.m. in the chapel of Hodges-Moore Funeral Home with the Rev. Cary Swanson officiating. Burial will follow in Oak Grove Baptist Church Cemetery.
Because of Karen's love for animals, her family requests that memorial contributions may be made to PETA.org in her memory.
Please visit our online memorial at www.hodgesmoore.com to sign the guestbook and share fond memories with the West family.
Hodges-Moore Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.
