Karla Sue Fewell Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Loving wife, mom, grammy and sister passed away on December 22, 2016 at home with her husband of 49 years by her side holding her hand and caring for her as only he could. She was born August 25, 1949 in Charles City, IA and moved to California at the age of five. She was the daughter of Eugene and Marjorie Kelley. Karla graduated from Anaheim High School in 1967. She married her husband, Roger, January 6, 1968 and together they raised two children in Anaheim, CA. After Roger’s retirement they moved to Salt Lake City. Karla devoted her life to her husband, family and friends. She loved her California Angels, watching football, she was always the loudest cheerleader, and cooking. Everybody loved her famous tacos, and whenever anybody came to her home they always wanted her to make them. She got so much pleasure out of spending time with her family. She was ecstatic that she got to share her birthday with her grandson, Trevin, and most recently her great-nephew, Nathan. She would always say that they were the best birthday gifts she has ever received. What brought her the most joy was playing card games with all of the kids in the family. We are going to miss the endless hours of Yahtzee, UNO, and Five Crowns. She had a very boisterous laugh and an enormous heart. Her door was always open and when you walked through it, you became family. Karla is survived by her husband, Roger; daughter, Lori Fewell and her fiance’, Cort Welsh; son, Clay (Leesa) Fewell; her 6 grandchildren, Trevin, Bailey, Chet, Jacob, Ashley, Sierra; sister, Connie (Bob) Sorensen, as well as many other family members. She was preceded in death by her parents, Eugene and Marjorie Kelley and her sister, Lynette Kelley. She will always be in our hearts, which will fill the void we feel while we are separated from her.
