Karen Goodin Obituary
With profound sadness, we say goodbye to Karen Goodin of Decorah, Iowa, born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, whose vibrant spirit touched the lives of many. Karen left this world on May 7, 2026 at the age of 68, leaving a void in the lives of so many people. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Karen Goodin to show support.
As we bid farewell to this cherished soul, solace is taken in the memories held dear — the laughter shared, the wisdom imparted, the moments of quiet reflection in their presence. Though Karen may no longer walk among us, her spirit lives on in the echoes of her kindness, the warmth of her embrace, and the light of her enduring love.
She was loved and cherished by many people including: her parents, Kenneth Merck and Judith Merck (Coryell); and her husband John Goodin.
In lieu of flowers, the family encourages donations to CurePSP, a nonprofit that is dedicated to improving care for PSP patients, supporting patients and families, and seeking a cure for the rare neurological disease.
