Karen Lee Poulter

Karen Lee Poulter passed from this life on November 14, 2019, at the age of 64. Born on February 1, 1955, in Yale, Oklahoma, Karen is the daughter of Norman Anderson and Lillian (Hasselwander) Anderson. Attending school in Mannford, Karen was active in basketball and later graduated with the class of 1973. Following her education, Karen resided in Mannford and worked for Pharmacil in Mannford, Oklahoma. Karen later began working for the United States Junior Chamber of Commerce in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where she was a secretary for several years. While working there, she met Michael Poulter, and the couple was united in marriage on November 9, 1990. They made their home in Jennings, Oklahoma and worked side by side for many years at Poulter Construction.

Karen enjoyed fishing and camping, mostly on the Cimarron and Arkansas River. Thanksgiving and Christmas time was spent with the family at home, as Karen loved to cook for them. Her homemade bread was famous! It is said Karen never met a stranger, and she was a second parent to many in the community.
