Karla was born on January 23, 1941, in Mlada Boleslav, Czechoslovakia. She was the daughter of Karel and Marie Ruzickova Triska. As the seventh of nine children, Karla was the final surviving member of her siblings.
Karla and Bedrich were married on October 1, 1960, and immigrated to New Haven in 1970. The family then moved to Clinton in 1991.
Karla enjoyed traveling and road trips. She loved flowers, especially roses, evergreen trees, shopping, and Christmas, but most of all, she cherished spending time with her family. Karla had a deep love for all animals, especially her dogs Sebastian and Remy and cats Daphne and Pyewacket. She embraced life fully and will be profoundly missed by all who knew her.
Besides her husband Bedrich of 64 years, she is survived by her son and daughter, Bedrich Hajek Jr. and Karla Hajek, both of Clinton. She is also survived by many nieces and nephews.
Visitation will be held on Tuesday, October 8, from 4 to 6 PM at the Swan Funeral Home in Clinton, immediately followed by a prayer service at 6:00 PM. All who knew any member of the family are welcome to attend the service.
