Karolyn Ann Behn

Karolyn Ann Behn, 38, of Boulder Junction entered heaven on Monday, January 7, 2013 with her loving family at her side. Kari was born on November 17, 1974 to Michael and Allyson Duwe. She was a 1993 graduate of LUHS and earned an Associate Degree from Northcentral Technical College in Wausau, WI in 1995. She was the beloved mother of five beautiful children: Cierra, Dillon, Mason, Karson and Marshall, who absolutely adored time with their mom. She is further survived by Grandmother, Shirley Duwe, parents, Mike and Allyson Duwe, all of Land O' Lakes; brothers, Mike (Tammy) Duwe of Sayner and Greg (Kreisa) Duwe of Bigfork, MN; niece and nephews, Priscilla, Matt and Jeremiah; and many other aunts, uncles and cousins. Kari's free spirit and passion for her family will be greatly missed. She and her daughter enjoyed many hours riding area trails on their horses. Her artistic abilities included remodeling and decorating her home. She was eager to welcome and care for any and all pets – a quality shared by all of her children. A service will be held at the Boulder Junction Community Church on Sunday, January 13 with visitation starting at 2:00 p.m. Service will be at 3:00 p.m. The family would like to extend a special thank you to Aaron Menke and St Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield for the care and compassion shown during this time.
