Obituary for Karen Marie Enss (Labonte)
ENSS: Karen Marie: - On July 4th Karen Marie Enss passed away at Lakeridge Health in Oshawa. Karen was creative and an artist through and through, with many, varied and evolving interests. Felting, painting, wood carving, rock collecting, knitting, kayaking, snow shoeing, bird watching and photography were all among her passions. She thoroughly enjoyed her years as the Board Chair of the Brock Township Library and all her contributions to her community.
Her own children, and her children’s children, were her pride and joy. The love she gave was returned threefold.
Karen was born in 1954 to John and Mary Labonté, now deceased. She is survived by a broad and loving family including her loving husband Bo Reinhard Enss, her children and their spouses: Matthew (Laura), Daniel (Kimberly), Raina (Derek), Rhiannon (Taylor), and Gabriel (Lior), and her grandchildren whom she adored and spoiled, Rowan, Sebastian, Wesley, Terrin, Amara, Micah, and Isaac.
Karen spent her life as the beloved sister of Alice, Michele, Marylou, Joe, Tim, Johnny, and Patrick. She loved and valued her family, all her sisters and brothers through marriage and birth, and her many nieces and nephews spread far and wide. And now, Karen has gone to join her daughter Tegan in heaven.
