With profound sadness, we say goodbye to Maria T. Karalexis of Chicago, Illinois, whose vibrant spirit touched the lives of many. Maria left this world on May 31, 2024 at the age of 97, leaving a void in the lives of so many people. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

As Maria departs from this earthly realm, her essence lingers — a whisper on the wind, a ripple on the water — a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend the boundaries of life and death. Though Maria may no longer walk beside us, her spirit lives on in the memories and the legacy Maria leaves behind.

She is survived by: her son Basil Karalexis; her grandchildren, Nick and Sophia; and her great grandchild John.

Keep Maria's legacy alive by donating to a charity in need.
