Karren Phyllip Boguslawski, 73, of Jerome, passed away Saturday, Sept. 15, 2012, after succumbing to injuries as a result of a vehicle accident in which his wife, Lorna, died on Aug. 15.
He was born March 23, 1939, to Felix and Ina Boguslawski at St. Valentine's Hospital in Wendell, Idaho. He grew up on a dairy farm in Jerome with his three siblings, went to school in Jerome and Shoshone. He married the love of his life, Lorna June Kulhanek on Nov. 9, 1957. A year later, they moved to Jackson, Wyo., to work for Aslett Construction. With news of Felix, severely burned from an accident on the farm, they came home to help family.
