He raised a family in Whitewater with hopes of living the American dream so his children could get a good education and achieve all the things he wished he could have as a young man.
Karen was born on April 15, 1939, in her uncle’s home in Green Grove, WI to Roscoe and Inez (Hardrath) Alexander. Her early years were spent with her brothers on the farm outside of Owen-Withee. Growing up with 3 brothers, Karen was quite a tomboy holding her own with them playing on the farm. Stories have been told that these four, along with their cousins, got into quite a bit of mischief over the years. She attended a one room schoolhouse through eighth grade, and attended Owen-Withee High School, where she participated in choir, orchestra and graduated valedictorian of her class. She spent practically every weekend attending dances in Atwood, WI with friends and her brother Gordy.
