In cherished memory of Karen L. Krzyzewski

Karen was a loving mother, daughter, sister, aunt and friend to many. She touched the lives of those she knew with her compassion, kind nature, and wisdom.

Karen worked for over 25 years with Library and Archives Canada and was a long-time resident of Barrhaven. She spent many hours reading books from the public library and listening to local live music. Her hobbies created beauty as she gardened, baked, stitched and knitted for her friends and family. Karen brought people together and will be remembered as a creative, gifted and thoughtful woman.

Her heart was large and her giving immeasurable. Karen was patient and put others' needs before her own. She was always quick to make you feel at home. She left her mark on each of us and will be greatly missed.
———————————————————— A la douce mémoire de Karen E. Krzyzewski

Karen était une mère, une fille, une sœur, une tante aimante ainsi que l'amie de nombreuses personnes. Par sa compassion, sa gentillesse et sa sagesse elle a touché la vie de ceux et celles qui l'ont connue.

a travaillé pour Bibliothèque et Archives Canada pendant plus de 25 ans, et habitait à Barrhaven depuis longtemps. Elle passait de nombreuses heures à lire des livres empruntés à la bibliothèque publique et à assister à des concerts, d'artistes locaux. Comme passe-temps, elle aimait le jardinage, la pâtisserie, la couture et le tricot. Le plus souvent, ce sont ses amis et sa famille qui profitaient de la beauté de ce qu'elle avait créé. Karen savait rassembler les gens et nous garderons d'elle le souvenir d'une femme créative, douée et attentionnée.

Karen avait un grand cœur et se donnait toute entière. Elle était patiente et faisait passer les besoins des autres avant les siens. Elle savait comment s'y prendre afin que chacun se sente chez soi. Elle nous a marqués à jamais et nous manquera énormément.

Erected 2015 by the City of Ottawa.
