Krasovec

Karen Marie Krasovec, 59, of Reading, PA , passed away on April 2, 2015. She is survived by her parents, Constance and Edward Krasovec of Sinking Spring, PA; her sister, Sandra Krasovec and her partner Stephen Yip,
of Brooklyn, NY; her sister, Deborah Lehman and her husband, Bryan Lehman, niece Ashley Lehman, and nephews Alex and Nicholas Lehman of Warrenton, VA; and her brother, Edward A. Krasovec and his wife Amanda Estes Krasovec, niece Laura Krasovec, and nephew Jake Krasovec of Media, PA, and nephew Andrew Krasovec of New York, NY.

Karen was born on October 19, 1955 in Cleveland, Ohio. She lived with her family as they moved to Illinois, Pennsylvania, and Indiana before moving back to Pennsylvania in the Reading area. The last 5 years Karen lived happily at the Dayspring group home on Gregg Avenue in Shillington, PA.

Karen loved to work, and loved the people who she worked with at Threshold Rehabilitation Services in Reading, PA. Karen was an avid bowler and especially enjoyed participating in Special Olympics bowling events. Karen loved all animals and not only kept track of local birds but also the health and well-being of the pet animals of her family and friends.

Karen was a special person who was loved and will be sorely missed by all of her family, friends, and caregivers.
She was the epitome of innocence but with an independent spirit, and was very sociable. Everyone who knew Karen will have a smile on their face whenever remembering anything about her.

A memorial service for Karen is planned on Saturday, April 25, 2015, at 2:00pm at the Calvary Lutheran Church, 1009 Elizabeth Avenue, Laureldale, PA 19605.

In lieu of flowers, Karen's family recommends a donation to Dayspring Homes (www.dayspringhomes.org/www), an organization that provides residential group homes, day services, respite services and in-home rehabilitative services to support persons with special needs as they reach young adulthood or can no longer remain at home.
