We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Karen Ratajczak, who left us peacefully on January 1, 2026. Born on March 26, 1957, Karen lived a fulfilling life filled with love and compassion.

Karen was an exceptional woman, whose love knew no bounds. Her nurturing spirit extended not only to her immediate family but also to those who had the honor of crossing paths with her. Her laughter, wisdom, and kindness will forever remain etched in the hearts of those who knew her.

She left behind profound love and beautiful memories, surviving her is her cherished son, Shane Ratajczak. She also leaves behind her loving daughters-in-law, Catherine Ratajczak. Karen's legacy will continue to live on through her grandchildren, Emily R, Shane R Jr, Alexis T, Christopher R, and Matthew R, who were the apple of her eye and her pride.

In addition to her immediate family, Karen is survived by her supportive sister, Deborah Berryman, who stood by her side through the highs and lows of life. The bond they shared was truly special and will forever serve as a testament to their unconditional sisterly love.

Karen's journey may have concluded in this life, but she will continue to watch over us and live on in our hearts and memories. Her love and teachings will continue to guide us, just as they always have.
