Sromek, Teresa E. (Kuras) (19 JUL 1923 - 11 MAY 2016)

Teresa E. Sromek, age 92, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, May 11, 2016, at Artisan Senior Living in Middleton.

She was born on July 19, 1923, in Duluth, Minn., the daughter of John and Frances (Klejevska) Kuras. After graduating from Saints Peter and Paul Girl's Cathedral in 1941, Teresa worked as an assistant nurse at St. Mary's Hospital until 1949.

She was united in marriage to Edward Sromek on Sept. 25, 1948. They moved from the Duluth area and settled in rural Gilman, Wis., where they owned Ruby Store and farmed from 1949 until her retirement in 1975.

Teresa then moved into the Village of Gilman where she worked part-time at Gilman Nursing Home for four years, followed by 16 years at Zastrow Care Center. During this time she earned a certificate to become a Certified Nursing Assistant. After full retirement in 1998, Teresa enjoyed hobbies such as gardening and baking.

She was active in the Ladies Church Guild and Rosary Society. After the passing of her husband, Edward, Teresa moved to the Thorp, Wis., area for a short while and then to the Madison area where she was under the care of her son, George and daughter-in-law, Marilyn.

Teresa is survived by her children, John (Debbie), Susan (Pete), and George (Marilyn); grandchildren, Tony (Jenni), Teri Lea (Jeremy), Christina, Thomas (Shayla), Lana (Jimmy), Jordan (Allison), Alex (Katie), and Catherine (Josh); and 12 great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Edward; brothers, John G., Thomas, Joseph, and Felix; and sister, Frances Nehl.

Funeral services will be held at SAINTS PETER AND PAUL CATHOLIC CHURCH, 315 E. Davlin St., Gilman, at 11 a.m., Wednesday, May 18, 2016. Burial will be at Meadowbrook Cemetery.

Visitation will be held at the church from 9:30 a.m. until the time of the service on Wednesday. Memorials in Teresa's name may be gifted to Agrace HospiceCare, Fitchburg.

The family wishes to thank Artisan Senior Living and Agrace HospiceCare, especially Terri and Susan for their wonderful care and support.
