Karen Benningfield

Mrs. Karen Denise Benningfield of Campbellsville was born on October 21, 1954 to the late James “Jig” and Emma Helen (Warren) Benningfield. She departed this life on Wednesday, January 2, 2019 at the Taylor Regional Hospital, being 64 years, 2 months, and 12 days of age. Mrs. Benningfield had made a profession of faith in Christ and was a member of the Campbellsville Separate Baptist Church. She was a fun-loving, kind-hearted, outgoing,  independent lady, and an inspiration to her family and friends.

Two sons: Brad Bloyd and wife Amy of Campbellsville, and Kyle Matthew Bloyd and companion Cecile of Greensburg,
