Obituary of Karen L. Haselbeck
HASELBECK, Karen L. (McHenry) of Saginaw MI went home to be with the Lord on Friday, February 7, 2014. Karen passed away at home with family by her side after suffering long term illness. She was born on March 13, 1943 in Midland, MI to the late Emma Jean McHenry. She graduated from Saginaw High in 1962. Karen married her soul mate, James Haselbeck, on May 29, 1965 at Sacred Heart Church in Saginaw. Karen and Jim raised their family of four children over the next several years. During that time, Karen was involved with the Reese Public Schools as a Teacher’s Assistant. Many of the children came to know her as “Witchy Poo”. She also made a difference in her community with the younger generation by being a Girl Scout Leader for many years and with her own generation by hosting and instructing ceramic classes in her home every week.
Karen is survived by her loving husband, James; her four children: Charles (Cathy) Haselbeck, Heidi Bayne, Greta (Matt) Zalucha, and John (Marsha) Haselbeck; seven grandchildren: Tiffany (Russ) Patterson, Todd Haselbeck, Amber Zalucha, Cody Zalucha, Corbin Bayne, Devan Bayne, and Mya Haselbeck; three great-grandchildren; and two spoiled dogs: Budha and Gizmo. Karen leaves behind many close friends. She is preceded in death by Emma Jean McHenry, Florence Losee, William Haselbeck, Sophia Haselbeck and Gloria Lagalo.
