Karen Earline Collier-Sanders was born August 25, 1959 to Earl and Dolphus Collier. Everyone knew her as, “the life of the party”. From childhood Karen always strove for excellence scholastically and socially. Karen’s exuberant, caring, warm, and genuine presence always mirrored a personality of endearment to people that gave her a springboard to positive interaction. Karen was diligent and compassionate in everything she accomplished in life.
She is survived by her children, Ozell Sanders III, Dolphus Sanders, and McKenna DeCoudres (Michael). She is also survived by grandchildren, Arius Traylor and Aiyana Monae and also by aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews and other various relatives.
