Louise Gertrude Plocharczyk Obituary
Louise Gertrude Plocharczyk, of Dunnellon, FL, and formerly of Colchester, CT, passed away on April 6, 2026. She was 76 years old. She was born on April 15, 1949, in Hartford, CT to the late John and Gertrude Passette.
After graduating from Glastonbury High School, she married Robert Crowell and together they had three sons whom she raised in Colchester. On February 13, 1997, she married Alan Plocharczyk, who sadly predeceased her in 2023. For 18 years, Louise drove the bus for the Colchester Senior Center. After retiring, she moved to Florida. Louise was a faithful communicant to her local Lutheran church and was active within her church community. In her spare time, she enjoyed lounging in the pool and spending time with her beloved dogs. More than anything, she loved spending time with her grandchildren, especially taking them to Norwich Navigators baseball games.
Louise will be sadly missed but always remembered with love by her children and their spouses, Robert Crowell, Jr. (Tammy), John Crowell (Kim), and Tim Crowell (Kelly), all of Colchester; her grandchildren, Kirsten, Nicholas, Kaitlyn, Noah, Isabella, Maya, TJ, Jenna, and Kinsley; her great grandchildren, Oliver and Sebastian; and numerous extended family members and friends.
A visitation will be held at the Aurora McCarthy Funeral Home on Thursday, April 23rd from 4 7PM.
