this poor girl weighed less than 90 lbs at 5'7" this of course caused her death because of anorexia. this indeed was a great loss to all of us who enjoyed her singing.

She was 5 foot 4 inches tall and weighed 108 lbs. when she died. She had been down to 79 lbs at one time.

She was below minimum, and died of essentially self-induced malnutrition, sometimes jocularioly called ( Starvicide) a blend word of starvation and suicide- in effect that is what it was. a psychological induced revulsion towards food- a related problem bears the slang term Chuck Horrors ( chuck, as in the western wagon, meaning Food). the term is accurate.Problem is confined almost entirely to young women.

Karen Anne Carpenter reached a height of five feet four inches tall. The fact that she was 5'4" tall did make it difficult to see her singing while she was seated behind her Ludwig drum set on stage.

How did Karen carpenter have grandchildren but not children?

Karen Carpenter did Not have any grandchildren. She had Godchildren. She was a Godparent, (Godmother) to some children. It a Christian tradition that people, other than the biological parents, can be Godparents to children, as selected by the biological parents. It's like saying someone is a co parent to the actual parent. It probably comes from a time when a person really needed their family to get by, because there were no social programs to fall back on. You probably heard, or read, that Karen Carpenter was a Godmother to some children, and misunderstood it to mean she was a grandmother to some children. Godfather, and Godmother, is a well respected term among Christians, and is not just associated with crime figures. Karen Carpenter never gave birth to any children, (her body afflicted with an eating disorder most of the time, did not even have menstrual periods during much of her adult life), she did not adopt children, and she did not have any grandchildren. She had Godchildren. She was a Godmother to some children.


Where is Karen carpenter buried?

Karen Anne Carpenter's crypt is located at Pierce Brothers Valley Oaks Memorial Park, 5600 Lindero Canyon Road, Westlake Village, CA 91352. To get there take highway 101 to Westlake Village, get off at Lindero Canyon Road exit, go north, turn in the entrance and go directly to the back of the park. It is located on top of a hill, near a tree and a human made creek. It can be seen on Google maps at Find A Grave, Karen Carpenter (new resting place). Karen's previous crypt was located at Forest Lawn, Lincoln Avenue, Crypress, Calif. However, when Richard Carpenter moved from Downey CA to Thousand Oaks, CA, he had the remains of his parents, Harold and Agnes, and his sister, Karen, moved from Crypress to Westlake Village. Westlake Village is a lot nearer to Thousand Oaks than Crypress is.
