Karen Noxon (October 20, 1955 – April 15, 2026)

Karen Noxon, 70, of Tooele, Utah, passed away peacefully in her home on April 15, 2026, leaving a void that her family cannot fill.

Born in Tooele in 1955 to the late Neva Cate, Karen attended Weber State University and graduated in 1995 as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN). After her nursing career at the Old Tooele Hospital in the Memory Care Unit, she later transitioned to being a stay-at-home mom. Karen dedicated herself to raising her two youngest children and watching the older grandchildren, while also devoting her spare time to her church and helping those in need. Known for her creativity, she could craft the most impressive diaper cakes and was exceptionally talented in arts and crafts. Karen loved her Rose garden.

Karen was a devoted mother to Lennetta (Andy) Elkins, Lawrence (Shannon) Krish, Christopher (Angela) Krish, Joshua (Cheyanna) Krish, and Daniel Noxon. She was also a loving grandmother to Samira Fonua, Alyssa Krish, Shayla Krish-Mounteer, Marissa Krish, Caydence Krish, Emma Elkins, Xavier Krish, and Xeanna Krish, and had five great-grandchildren.

Karen was preceded in death by her husband, Donald Noxon; her mother, Neva Cate; and her brother, Robert Cate. She is survived by Edith Thayer and Christine McCorry, who will always cherish the love she brought into their lives.

Services will be held at the Tooele Springs Calvary Chapel, 47 North Main Street, Tooele, Utah, on Friday, April 24th, at 2 PM.
