Karen Klein Obituary, Death: It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Karen Klein, affectionately known as KK, who passed away recently. A long-time fixture of the Kitchener, Ontario, community and a beloved member of the Rafters family, Karen gave more than 41 years of exceptional service and dedication. Her legacy will forever be remembered by the many lives she touched through her career and personal connections.
Karen’s journey with the company began in 1984, during the early days of Rafters, long before the creation of Moose Winooski’s. She quickly became a cornerstone of the team, known for her unwavering loyalty, reliability, and dedication. Her presence was a constant, and her commitment to her work earned her a reputation as a “rockstar” team member the type of employee every employer dreams of having.
Throughout her career, Karen’s warmth and kindness shone through, both in her interactions with guests and in the relationships she fostered with her fellow team members. She was more than just an employee; she was a true leader who consistently went above and beyond, offering not only her skills and talents but also her heartfelt care for everyone she encountered. It’s no wonder that the first part of her name, “Care,” so perfectly embodied who she was — a thoughtful, compassionate, and generous human being.
Karen’s legacy as the “OG Moose Girl” will forever be etched in the memories of everyone who had the privilege of working with her. She was one of the most cherished leaders the team ever had, known for her ability to inspire and connect with people from all walks of life. Her passion for the job and her devotion to those around her made her an irreplaceable member of the Moose family. The team will never be the same without her, and she will be sorely missed by all who had the pleasure of working with her.
Her family, friends, and colleagues alike are mourning her loss. In a heartfelt message, the Moose Winooski’s team expressed their deep condolences to Karen’s two daughters and the rest of her family, acknowledging the profound impact she had on their lives. “Karen, your legacy will continue to live on here at the Moose,” the message reads. “It has been our pleasure and privilege to know you, work with you, walk with you, and grow with you. You will never be forgotten.” Karen’s life will be celebrated in a memorial service in the near future, with the date to be determined. While her physical presence is no longer with us, the impact she made will continue to resonate for years to come. She leaves behind a legacy of kindness, dedication, and love that will never fade.Rest peacefully in paradise, Karen. Your memory will forever remain in the hearts of all who knew you.
