Karen Irene Page, age 82, of Bagley, Wisconsin, passed away peacefully Sunday, 2024. She was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota to the late Marston and Irene Schreiber. Her family later relocated to Janesville, Wisconsin where she graduated from Janesville Senior High School in 1960. And this is where Karen met the love of her life, Terry Page. They were married in 1962 and enjoyed a loving marriage of 62 years. Together, they owned and operated the A&W drive-in. In 1972, they moved to Wyalusing (Bagley), Wisconsin, with their three boys and opened Page’s Hid N’ View Campgrounds. Their love of the area, and especially the river, became the perfect place to raise their family and meet so many people with who they began long lasting friendships. They enjoyed hunting, fishing, boating, snowmobiling, and traveling. Karen worked for the West Grant / River Ridge School district for 26 years. She had a love for music and played the organ. Karen loved to travel and visited Europe several times. She and Terry enjoyed exploring America and had many fishing trips together. Karen once served as Worthy Matron of the Order of the Eastern Star, belonged to several social organizations, and was a member of Bagley Lutheran Church.
As we say goodbye to Karen, we celebrate the life of a woman who will be remembered for her kindness, love, wisdom, and witty sense of humor. Her legacy is one of unwavering devotion to her family, a testament to the beautiful life she lived, and the countless lives she touched. Karen's memory will be treasured forever, as we hold her close in our hearts and remember the light she brought into this world.
Karen is survived by her husband, Terry, her three sons, Mark Page, Bryan (Rhonda) Page, and Greg (Shelly) Page; 4 grandchildren, Garrett, Jordan, Logan, and Jacob; brother, Bill (Cindy) Shreiber, Jim (Lynn) Schreiber, Debbie Schreiber; lifelong friend, Mary Lou Dennisson.
