Obituary

Wafa Farah Karadsheh, a beloved resident of Kentwood, MI, passed away peacefully on Sunday, November 3rd, 2024, at the age of 62. Born on a bright Tuesday, March 6th, 1962, in the historical city of Madaba, Wafa's life was filled with love, laughter, and a commitment to her family and community.

A devoted wife, mother, and grandmother, Wafa is deeply mourned by her loving husband, Bassem Karadsheh. She is survived by her cherished children, Tamer (Gabriella) Karadsheh, Renee Karadsheh, Donna Karadsheh, and Johnny Karadsheh. Her light will continue to shine through her treasured grandchildren, Nadia, Amalia, and Elisabetta Karadsheh. Wafa also leaves behind her dear siblings, Marwan, Walid, Salem, and Sawsan Karadsheh, along with a host of extended family members who will forever hold her memory in their hearts.

Wafa was preceded in death by her beloved parents, Farah and Elaine Karadsheh, and her precious children, Sami, Joseph, and Sumia Karadsheh, who have welcomed her into eternal peace.

Professionally, Wafa was a dedicated Certified Public Accountant. Her passion for precision and her integrity garnered respect and admiration from her colleagues and clients alike.
