Karen Jane Metka

April 18, 1947 - September 6, 2021

Karen Jane Metka (Neander), of Riverside California, passed away, Monday September 6th, 2021 at Riverside Community Hospital with her daughter Amy and granddaughter Peyton by her side.

She also has two brothers Jon Neander and George Neander. She was preceded in death by her husband of 53 years Adrian Metka and parents Charles and Bette Neander. Karen loved her family endlessly and made them the center of her world. She was a hairdresser by trade for many years then switched once her children came along and took in kids as a daycare provider for over 20 years and had many extended families that lovingly called her “Nana”. She was a life long crafter and had amazing skills in sewing, painting and many other things. In her later years she became caretaker for her parents amid many health challenges of her own. Karen was a selfless person and loved by many. She is missed everyday. Thank you to the Doctors and Nurses at Riverside Community Hospital for doing the best they could for her. She was tended to with dignity, care and professionalism. Karen will be laid to rest with her beloved husband Adrian, at Riverside National Cemetery on Tuesday, October 12th, 2021 at 11:30 a.m.
