Obituary of Leneza F. Karpenski

Leneza Karpenski (née Fore), passed away peacefully on July 13, 2024 in Flemington, NJ. She was 71.

Up until this day, Leneza’s positivity, love of life, and optimistic outlook never wavered a bit regardless of what life threw her way. Some of her biggest joys in life included country music (Randy Travis, Dolly Parton & Kenny Rogers to name a few), Disney World, Nashville, Coors Light, & any chance to party.

Leneza is survived by her loving and devoted daughter, Kimberly Cosulich and her husband, Matt; her son, Michael & his girlfriend Jill; the two great loves of her life, her grandchildren Mason & Amelia; and her sister, Becky Singleterry. 

She was predeceased by her parents, Jerry and Claudine Fore; one brother, Buddy Fore; and one sister, Lisa Townsend.
