Karen Hatten was born and raised in a small farming community in South Dakota. After moving to Southern California, she worked in various administrative jobs. Eventually, she worked in the aerospace industry where she retired as a manager of a procurement group. After retiring from their professional jobs, Karen and her husband Lyle moved to Northern California and bought a four-acre vineyard in Kenwood. They retired again after ten years of farming and now live in Santa Rosa. Karen volunteers at the Center on the Welcoming Team. She enjoys interacting with other volunteers and congregants. Karen says, “It’s very satisfying to volunteer and give back to the Center.”
