Karen was born in Wayne County West Virginia July 23, 1940, to the late Wayne and Lucille (Perry) Adkins. She married Richard D. “Dick” Coons November 16, 1969, in Zanesfield, Ohio and he preceded her in death June 7, 1998.

Karen worked as a secretary at Bulldog Electric, then worked several years at Carter Steel and retired from Wrath Resources.

She was a former member of the First Christian Church in Bellefontaine where she had also belonged to the Kings Daughters. Karen enjoyed gardening, reading books and spending time with her grandkids.
