Senorita Kramarenko
Central, SC
Senorita Oganova Kramarenko, 80, of Central, SC, widow of Gennadiy W. Kramarenko, died Sunday, December 17, 2017 at her home.
Born in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, she was a daughter of the late Arkadiy Aleksandrovich and Zinaida Mirzoevna Oganov. She went to Turkmen University and earned a PhD in mathematics and physics at the Academy of Science of the USSR. Having survived the 1948 earthquake in Turkmenistan, she devoted her research to the field of seismology.
Rita will be remembered most for her devotion to her family and sincere, freely-giving spirit. She filled her life with knitting and crocheting projects that her children and grandchildren proudly wear, avid fandom for the Chelsea football club, and a deep passion for reading and learning. Coming from a humble upbringing, she managed to transform that into an abundance of joy, support, and compassion for all those around her. Visiting Grandma Rita meant leaving full – both of yummy food and of the feeling that you were genuinely and unconditionally loved. Rita had an inextinguishable internal drive to positively affect all who encountered her and for her immense good will she was deeply appreciated and loved and will forever be remembered.
Surviving are daughters, Galina G. Kramarenko and her husband, Eric Fisher of Shelton, Connecticut and Yana Povod and her husband, Konstantin of Central, SC; grandchildren, Il'ya Povod, Ksjusha Povod and Sophie Povod.
We encourage friends and family to bake Russian desserts and share them with loved ones in her memory.
