Karen’s proudest moments and her greatest blessings came when God blessed her to become a mother. She is the proud mother of two children, Donametria 27, and Daniel, 20. She has been married to her best friend for the past 28 years, Rev. Donald Stallings, who is her rock and the wind beneath her wings. She is a member of several professional and community organizations including the National Association Of Social Workers, and Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc.

Karen strives to live by her favorite scripture: John 5:6

When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had been in that state a long time, He said unto him, "Wilt thou be made whole?"
