Kar (and her twin Nolene) were the youngest of 7 children born to Dale Burtice Bullock and Barbara Louise Pattee.
Kar was educated at Mountview Elementary, Midvale Middle School and Hillcrest High School, graduating in 1987. After graduation she married Daniel C Ellisor on September 23, 1987. They were later sealed in the Mount Timpanogos Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in March 2005.
Together Dan and Kar raised 5 children. Over the years Kar spent many hours serving in various church callings and serving her community by simply helping others. She loved sharing her baking and excellent salsa. Her home was always a welcoming place for her kids’ friends, resulting in her being like a second mom to many that she loved as her own.
Kar spent most of her life in the greater Salt Lake City, Utah area, but recently relocated to Florida with her husband, Dan.
Kar was predeceased by her father, Dale Bullock, brothers Reid and Bryan Bullock, and her niece Kasenia Christensen.
She is survived by husband, Daniel Ellisor, children Katheryne (Jeron Mahoney), Kilye, Kiryssa (David Rivera), Drew, and Devin. Her 4 granddaughters, who she loved with her whole heart, Kiah, Riley, and Harper Mahoney, and Alayna Rivera. Her siblings Victoria Weiler, Richard Bullock, David Bullock, and twin, Nolene Chatwin. Mother Barbara Pattee and Mother Karen Bullock, and many more friends and family who loved her.

I was so sorry to hear about Karlene's passing. I lived next door to the Bullock's when they were growing up. I've lost track of all of you, but the memories live on. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire family, at this time.
I have such great Memories of High School with Kar in them. She was such a good friend. So sorry to her Family for your loss.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I have not been here for all that long, and did not know Karlene very well, but all I have heard is how amazing she was in every way, and that she was just a beautiful person. That was my experience in my limited interactions with her as well. Karlene's loss is felt by everyone, but the impact to your family is of course staggering, and you have mine and my families deepest sympathy during this immensely difficult time.
My heart breaks to read this…
Dan & Kar and their kids were our neighbors in Kearns and great friends …
hugs to you all ❤️
