Madison - Violet Zalewski, age 92, of Madison, passed away on Thursday, July 28, 2022 at Agrace HospiceCare. She was born on Feb. 25, 1930, in Chicago, the daughter of John and Theresa Wszolek.

She married her best friend, Ed, in 1950 and they lived happily in Chicago. Violet worked for many years in retail sales. Upon retiring, she became very active volunteering at St. Richards parish in Chicago.

Violet moved to Madison eight years ago to be near family and developed a new group of friends at the Arbors. She enjoyed socializing, reading, and participating in all of the activities at The Arbors. She also loved spending quality time with her family and friends.

Violet is survived by her son, Michael (Shelley) Zalewski; granddaughter, Julia Zalewski; grandson, Matt Zalewski; and many nieces and nephews who will miss her greatly. She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband; and her brother and sisters.

Her family sends a special thank you to her friends and staff at The Arbors for all of their love and support.
