Karen Stull Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Arner Funeral Chapel - Chester on Mar. 25, 2026.
Karen L. Stull, 75, of East Liverpool, passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, March 24, 2026, at UPMC Presbyterian Hospital in Pittsburgh.

Born on April 3, 1951, in East Liverpool, Karen was the beloved daughter of the late Fred and Norma (Lowe) Salsberry.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her cherished daughter, Jenny Rebecca Stull; her baby brother, Christopher Salsberry; and her brother-in-law, Wayne Seevers.

Karen was a proud graduate of East Liverpool High School and devoted her life to her family as a homemaker. She was a faithful member of the First Free Methodist Church in East Liverpool. Throughout the years, she also participated in TOPS Group and God's Choice. Karen found joy in the simple pleasures of life: crocheting, working puzzles, and most of all, spending treasured time with her great-grandchildren, whom she adored deeply.

Known for her fun-loving spirit and caring heart, Karen brought warmth and laughter to those around her. Her presence will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

She is survived by her son, Kenneth Stull of East Liverpool; her daughter, Amanda McGaffic of East Liverpool; her grandchildren, Jade Davis, Madyson McGaffic, and Todd McGaffic Jr.; her great-grandchildren, Serenity, Meadow, Scarlett, Mason, Octavia, and soon-to-arrive baby Oliver; and her sister, Linda Seevers.

Family and friends will gather to celebrate Karen's life on Friday, March 27, 2026, at the Arner Funeral Chapel at 8:00 PM. Visitation will be held two hours prior to the service, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM.

Karen's memory will live on in the hearts of those she loved, and in the many lives she touched with her kindness, humor, and unwavering devotion to family.
