Karen D. Gallagher- Loving Wife, Mother & Grandmother
Karen D. Gallagher sadly passed away on Sunday, August 1, 2021 at Richmond University Medical Center at the age of 75.

She enjoyed watching the Food Network channel, cooking for her family and friends. Karen was a member of the “quarantine kitchen”.

Funeral arrangements were entrusted to Cherubini McInerney Funeral Home, 1289 Forest Ave. Viewing hours will be held on Thursday from 2-4pm and 7-9pm. A funeral mass will be on Friday at 10am at Blessed Sacrament Church followed by an entombment at Resurrection Cemetery.

I communicated with Karen almost everyday through QK! We became internet friends in 2020 through the quarantine kitchen website! I was posting meals with my Zak Great Dane in the back ground. He was diagnosed with brain cancer a few months after we started posting! Karen was always full of encouragement, supportive, and genuinely interested in his journey! Although we never met in person, but planned to on one of her many trips to Philadelphia to have dinner with one of her sons and daughter in law, I was Edgar to see her smile in person which always came across in her correspondence with me! I felt she was a warm, caring, funny, upbeat person in real life! With everything she was going through with her health, she never once seemed down or had any self pity! I will surely miss our Daily back and forth banter each morning! Cancer is a horrible and merciless disease!
I know nothing I can say will ease your pain of the loss of your Wife, Mother, and Grandmother!
