ABOUT THE charity
Karen Fenton Ovarian Cancer Fund
“Goodbyes hurt the most when the story was not finished”
Our beloved daughter, sister and dear friend Karen, died on the 30th of April 2017, aged 43, a life not ready to leave this world, her story not yet complete.
Since then her family have set up ‘The Karen Fenton Ovarian Cancer Fund’ to raise awareness of this unforgiving disease and to aid research in the fight against Ovarian Cancer.
We hosted the inaugural Karen Fenton Memorial Run on April 15th, 2018, in Karen’s name, honour and memory in her hometown of Ballinora, just two weeks short of her First Anniversary. The race finish line was located adjacent to the graveyard where Karen was laid to rest.
Karen had a passion for many things, music, sport, travel, but most of all, she had a passion for people. She inspired and touched so many people and has friends in every corner of the globe.
“A life that touches others goes on forever”
