June 17, 1945 - November 7, 2024
Bradenton, Florida - Dale Alexander Karcz, 79, born in Green Bay Wisconsin, was preceded in death by his son, Kyle, beloved wife, Jacqueline (Borucke) Karcz, and parents, Alex Karcz and Aurelia (Blajeski) Karcz, as well as a brother, Daniel Karcz, and sister, Darlene Karcz Vandertie.
He is survived by his sons Adam (Lauren) and Anthony (Noelle) Karcz, his stepdaughters Amiee (Kevin) Taylor and Sherrie Kreder, and his grandchildren Greg, Kaylie, Gavin, Jordan, and Nick, all of whom he loved deeply.
Dale loved people. He connected with everyone he met in a way that left them feeling like they'd been friends for years. It's a talent that served him well as a boy when he'd appeal to the better nature of gate attendants at Lambeau Field who turned a blind eye as he snuck into Packers games.
A self-taught handyman and tinkerer, he was happiest when he was helping others, leading to careers in sales and service throughout his life. His jack-of-all-trades nature culminated at the Team Success school where he ensured the students were fed daily (and throughout the summer break) and helped with everything from maintaining classrooms to caring for stray kittens. No task was too big or too small if it helped someone.
The family is holding a private service and requests that remembrances be made with contributions in Dale's memory to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation (https://t2t.org/).
