KARCZEWSKI, Alma L., 78, of Valrico, entered into rest Wednesday, February 5. Alma was born in Lithuania and fled from there to Hannover, Germany during the war at younger years and at the age of 21 she came with her Mother, Maria, in 1956 to Chicago, Il. It was in 1958 she came to work at the A&P Bakery and met Charles, they went together for 2 years and fell so much in love and got married, had a beautiful son and life was perfect together for another 53 years. The family travelled a lot touring the country which brought out Alma’s talent for painting and poetry. She loved nature and the landscape around the family home was an example of her love for gardening. Nature loved her back and now we believe she has returned to her favorite garden. She is preceded in death by her parents and brother. Survivors include her husband, Charles Karczewski; son, David Karczewski; daughter-in-law, Mary Hansen; and grandson, Ryan Karczewski. The family will receive friends 10 am-12 pm Wednesday, February 12 at Stowers Funeral Home, Brandon with a memorial service to follow at noon. Alma will be deeply missed by her family and friends, but will live on in their hearts and memories.
