09/28/1946 - 09/03/2025

With heavy hearts, our family announces the passing of our beloved Karen Daugherty on September 3rd, 2025, in Albuquerque, NM.

Born on September 28th, 194,6 in Buffalo, NY.

Mom, grandma, great-grandma, and great-great-grandma.

She was a feisty firecracker who loved her Buffalo Bills, her makeup trips, and always took pride in her nails. Quick with her words, stubborn in spirit, and never without her beloved cigarette, she lived life on her own terms and taught us to do the same. She filled our lives with laughter, “uck ucks,” and little moments of joy, reminding us that good things come to those with patience. Above all, she loved her family, friends, and pets deeply, and her warmth, humor, and smile will be greatly missed but never forgotten. Uck uck…

In keeping with their wishes, services will be private, held with family.

Arrangements have been entrusted to the caring and compassionate professionals at

Trujillo Family Funeral Home
