KAREN GARNER ALBERTO

(nee KRISTENSEN)

August 8, 1954 - March 22, 2026


Karen passed away peacefully on March 22, 2026, in Winnipeg.

She immigrated from Denmark as a child with her parents, Anna Garner and Bernhardt Kristensen. The youngest of five children, she was predeceased by her siblings, Peter, Sven, Henning, and Herdis; and by her husband, Nicola Alberto.

She lived in Libau, Winnipeg, and Richer, MB, and Calabria, Italy.

As a foster parent, she later took the greatest pride in her work in the Medicine and Dialysis Unit at Seven Oaks Hospital.

Karen leaves her children, Viola, Peter, and David (foster children, Diane, Melanie, and Danielle); her cherished granddaughter, Emily; and special friend Debra.

Special thanks to the Palliative Care Manitoba Program.

A small service will be held in future. She will be dearly missed.
