Ralph Karczewski

Ralph Karczewski, age 87 of Mahtomedi, passed away peacefully on August 14, 2024. He is survived by his wife of 65 years, Pat; children Carole Lundell and Keith (Katarina) Karczewski; grandchildren, Rachel, Brendan, Mikayla, Bryce, Caroline; siblings, Phyllis Witkowski, Gerald Karczewski; many nieces, nephews and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents, John and Irene. Ralph truly loved people - kids in particular. For decades, he volunteered whenever and wherever he could, whether it was for the school band, camp, or vacation bible school. At camp, he was affectionally known as "Camp Gramp," always willing to share a little tenderness with a homesick camper.

Memorials should be specifically designated to: Presbyterian Homes Foundation, Boutwell's Landing The Gables - Third Floor Employee Appreciation.
