Karen Lynn Hughes Dunlap, 66, of Sod, went home to her Heavenly Father on Saturday, January 22, 2022.
She was the daughter of Naomi Hughes and the late Jim Hughes and the granddaughter of the late Arizona Bell Ball Hughes.
Left to cherish her memories is her true love, best friend, and caregiver, her husband of many years, Justin Dean Dunlap; their two sons, Jamey (Lula) Dunlap and Jeremy Dunlap; and their only daughter, Justina (Gary) Linville. Karen was the proud grandmother of ten grandchildren: Garrison, Tori, Faith, Joshua, Brayden, Gabby, Malana, Austin, Ava, and Danny.
She is also survived by her only sister, Connie (Mike) Graley and was preceded in death by her three brothers, Eugene, Randy, & Kevin Hughes, as well as her father and mother-in-law, Dean & Nina Dunlap, whom she loved very much.
Karen was always a hard worker, very selfless, and always willing to help others. She worked as a medical assistant but more importantly to her, she served as a youth leader at Pine Grove Baptist Church for many years. She sang God’s praises at many different churches throughout the community. Karen will be missed by many and was loved by all.
Funeral service will be 2:00 p.m., Wednesday, January 26, 2022, at Curry Funeral Home, Alum Creek with her nephew, Pastor Aaron Graley officiating. Karen will be laid to rest at a later date at Pine Grove Cemetery, Sumerco. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service at the funeral home.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to offset funeral costs to Curry Funeral Home, PO Box 9, Alum Creek WV, 25003.
She will be missed.
I am so sorry to hear about the home going of your Mom Jamey. May God give you peace. We will be praying for you and your family.
