Karen Marie Clayton Obituary

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of a beloved mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, and friend. She was a woman whose love for her family was unmatched and whose presence brought comfort, laughter, and warmth to everyone fortunate enough to know her.


She was the cherished daughter of the Late Deacon John Grussler and Dolores Grussler. She was preceded in death by her sister, Pamela Yuhas, and is survived by her loving sisters, Patricia Fisk and husband Jeffrey Fisk, Jacqueline Cantlin and husband Brian Cantlin, and Janice Rowe and husband David Rowe.


Above all else, she was a devoted mother to Lauryn Clayton, Jaclyn Clayton, Jonithan Clayton and his wife Sarah Clayton. Her greatest joy in life was being "Mom" and "Grandmom." She treasured every moment spent cheering from the stands as her grandsons, Jaxson Clayton and Mason Clayton, played baseball, and she never missed an opportunity to proudly watch her granddaughter, Angelyna Mifflin, dance. Her grandchildren were the light of her life, and she spoke of them with endless pride and unconditional love.


She will be remembered for her caring heart, unwavering devotion to her family and friends, and the many lives she touched through her kindness and friendship. Though her absence leaves an immeasurable void, her love and memories will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.


She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered always.


Services will be held 12:00pm May 14th at Knott's Colonial Funeral Home, 2946 South Broad St. Hamilton NJ


Calling hours for family and friends are 10:00am until services


Interment will follow in Holy Cross Cemetery.
