We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Karen Peterson, who can finally rest in peace after a long and courageous battle with breast cancer. She was born on April 1st, 1970 in Wallace, North Carolina to her loving parents Russel Judge and Christian Littlejohn.

Karen leaves behind her four beloved children: Rodney D. Littlejohn, Paige Francis, Andre L. Smith, and Terrence Peterson. She was also a doting grandmother to two wonderful grandchildren.

Karen will always be remembered for her infectious laughter, her love of cooking, and her unwavering support for her family. She had a knack for making people smile, even in the darkest of times.

Although our hearts are heavy with grief, we take comfort in knowing that Karen is now at peace and watching over us from above. She will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to a breast cancer research foundation in Karen's memory. She would have wanted to help others in any way she could.

Rest in peace, Karen Peterson. You will be dearly missed and fondly remembered by all who were lucky enough to have known you.
