Kapsok “Ko” Gardner of Fairbanks Alaska passed away Dec 18, 2019. Ko was born in Jinju, South Korea on Jan 8, 1933. She lived in Fairbanks, AK for most of her life before moving to the Atlanta area with her late husband, Gene Gardner.
After Gene’s passing, she remained there, living with Kent and Ginger Gardner who had welcomed her into their family. Ko was well liked with many, many friends and enjoyed spending her time socializing with others. She kept herself busy most of the time, but always took the time to make those around her feel special. Anyone that had had the pleasure of knowing her could easily see how selfless she was.
She is survived by her sons, Mark, Cole, Wayne, Kent, Gene and Jimmy as well as her sister Malsoon Jun and brother Ko Myung Seok. She will be missed.
In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting to have donations made to the Lewy Body Dementia Association. Donations can be made online at www.lbda.org.
A graveside funeral service is pending and will be held at St James Cemetery in Milford, MO.
