Carol J. Konieczka

Carol Jean Konieczka (nee Campion) was called home to heaven on Tuesday, March 28, 2023, at the age of 90. Carol was the beloved wife of Ronald “Ron” Konieczka for more than 70 years.

Carol was the only child of LeRoy Campion and Eleanor Campion (nee Collins), and was born April 5, 1932, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Carol attended Pershing Elementary School and West Milwaukee High School. Carol’s accounting and office management skills were honed at Prospect Hall (pre-UW Milwaukee). These skills were invaluable to the family plumbing businesses, managing a household, and various other part-time jobs over decades.

Carol and Ron raised their children Mike, Tom (Patty), and Katie (John) in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, and then built their dream home on North Lake in 1986 where they were devoted members of St. Teresa of Calcutta Catholic Church.

In addition to Ron and their children, Carol is survived by her grandchildren, Chris (Leah), Kevin (Jane), Kyle (Lindsey), Amy (Jake), Abby (Kyle), Julia (Nick), Gina (Cole) and John. She is further survived by her great grandchildren, Kaden, Kendall, Benjamin, Kole, James, Livia and Isla.

The family would like to extend special thanks to Dr. Katie Hausmann and staff, as well as the kind, attentive staff at Ascension Elmbrook Hospital and Compassus Hospice.

The Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 12:00 p.m. on Tuesday, April 4, 2023, at St. Teresa of Calcutta Catholic Church (W314 N7462 WI-83, North Lake, WI 53064). Family and friends are invited to visit directly at the church on Tuesday morning from 10:30 a.m. until the time of Mass. Private family burial will be held at St. Clare Catholic Cemetery, North Lake.
