Karen E. Weber Obituary

Karen Elizabeth Tovell Weber was a deeply loving wife, mother, sister and friend. She left this world unexpectedly but peacefully in her sleep as a result of complications from multiple chronic illnesses, while surrounded by the people she loved most, in her home in Naperville on November 27, 2020 at age 61. Karen is survived by her devoted husband of 33 years, John Brian Weber, and her ray of light daughter, Paige Marie Weber, as well as her brother, Craig Tovell, and her sister, Margo Tovell. Karen is preceded in death by her father and mother, Bruce and Jan Tovell, as well as several beloved pets. Karen fought a courageous battle with bipolar disorder from the time she was diagnosed in 1996, as well as many health complications later in life. Despite the challenge that this illness brings, she had the strength and resilience to raise an amazing child, and to be a wonderful wife and mother. Karen’s brilliance was evident to those lucky enough to get to know her. Karen always did everything in her power to embrace her friends, share her charisma, appreciate the small aspects of life, and never let a day go by without expressing her love to anyone (or any animal) around her. Karen set herself apart early-on graduating with Phi Beta Kappa Honors from University of Cincinnati, and then worked her way through law school at Ohio Northern University and passed the Ohio State Bar Exam. She then started her career as an attorney, but quickly found her muse as an award-winning and successful sales representative. She then channeled that passion into raising her only child, while balancing many creative passions. On top of speaking fluent Spanish in a Castilian accent with anyone that would converse, she was an avid gardener (and inexplicable green thumb), a voracious reader, a gifted artist in many different mediums, an animal advocate, always with an eye for sophisticated style and class. Karen was an enthusiastic member and leader of countless clubs, and a devoted member of Holy Spirit Catholic Church. In her spirit, we are simply asking for any memories, stories or photographs that you have to celebrate her life, sent to the family e-mail address below. As well but not necessary, and in lieu of flowers, please send memorials on her behalf to The Hinsdale Humane Society – hinsdalehumanesociety.org/donate/ Visitation: Friday December 4th starting at 3:00pm at Beidelman-Kunsch Funeral Homes and Crematory, South Naperville at 24021 Royal Worlington Dr. Naperville IL, 60564 (630) 922-9630 Prayer service and eulogies streaming live will be Friday December 4th at 6:15pm.
