Aleksandr Kramskoy

Born on September 21, 1929, in Bila Tserkva, Ukraine, to the late Israil and the late Basya, he was the beloved husband of the late Raisa Kramskaya. Dear father of Michael Kramskoy and Anna Kabakov; cherished grandfather of Marina Kramskaya, Irina Papp, Britany Wessan, and Sabrina Kabakov; adored great grandfather of Elizabeth; and dear brother of the late Vlad.

A hard working and dedicated husband, father, and grandfather; Aleksandr was a man who always strove to provide and support those he cared about most. As an active family man, he was always one to lend a hand in taking care of his children and grandchildren. Proud of his heritage and homeland, Aleksandr always enjoyed connecting with his cultural roots; especially watching his Russian television programs. He will be dearly missed by all those who knew him.
