Szczech, Victoria (23 DEC 1879 - 7 MAY 1931)

Mrs. Victoria Szczech, nee Victoria Dlugolpolski, was born in Poland, Dec. 23, 1879, and departed this life May 7th, 1931 at the age of fifty-two years. She leaves to mourn her death, three children, two sons and one daughter, Walter and Leon of Thorp, Clark Co., Wis., and Mrs. Nellie Rogus of Withee, Clark Co. Her husband preceded her in death Feb. 18, 1918.

The funeral services were held at St. Hedwig’s Church Monday morning at 10 a.m., Rev. F. A. Kulig officiating, where a very large number of relatives and friends attended, interment following in the Catholic Cemetery. The pallbearers were: Anton Walowick, Martin Rogalski, Joe Kopinski, John Pajak, Walter Badzinski and Victor Lopacz.

Mrs. Szczech guarded her home with a mother’s and father’s care, always a kind and loving woman and as she lived she died. Without a word of farewell or warning she entered the darkness or dawn we call death. She has only left with us her wealth of though and deed, the memory of a brave never failing woman who bowed alone to sleep.

May her soul rest in peace.

Those from out of town attending the funeral were: Mr. and Mrs. John Sojka and daughter Angeline, Pete Worchal of St. Paul, Eva and Walter Szczech, Mr. Frank Gorz, Mrs. Rose Kotowski, of Chicago, Ill., Mr. and Mrs. Joe Pliny and children, Mrs. Frank Sojka, Joe Kopinski, of Dancy, Wis., and Frank Szczech and children of Junction.

Michalak, Ruth (29 October 1924 – 9 June 2019)

Ruth Michalak, 94, passed away at her home in Eau Claire on Sunday, June 9, 2019 with family by her side.

Ruth was born on October 29, 1924 in Stanley, Wisconsin to Mary (Ciolkosz) and Stanley (Ed) Smoczyk. After graduating from Stanley High School, Ruth worked in Chicago, but after several years, she missed the “wide open spaces” and returned home. In 1947 she married Kasmer Michalak, and they moved to the Michalak family farm on Highway G north of Stanley. After Kap died in a tragic accident on July 4, 1963, Ruth continued raising their six children on the farm and worked for many years at Thorp Finance and ITT Corporation. After moving to Eau Claire in 1983, she worked for the Eau Claire County Senior Aides Department and also volunteered in the Lakeshore Elementary School library.

As a small child, Ruth discovered the magic of books and had a lifelong love of a “good clean story.” She was a huge fan of westerns (especially Louis L ’Amour), classic mystery novels and John Wayne movies. Though Ruth faced tremendous challenges during her 94 years, there were also many reasons for great joy and celebration. She faced life with faith, courage, humility, grace, a quick wit and a well-honed sense of humor. Those whose lives she entered were blessed by her
kindness, generosity and wisdom.

Ruth’s family was most important to her. She will be missed by all who knew her and especially her children LaVerne (Janet) Michalak, Mary Ann (the late Samuel) Voytovich, Patricia (Steve) Telisak, Linda (Mark) Schmidt, Deborah Michalak (Susan Sherlag), Cindy Michalak (Barb Beckstead), her twelve grandchildren; her 21 great-grandchildren; her sisters Colleen (the late Jim) Ruby, and Lorraine (Louis) Champa, and brother Michael (Carol Lee) Smoczyk.

Ruth, now pain free and at peace, joins those who have passed before her including: her husband Kasmer, parents, brothers Peter, Harry, James and Robert, and many in-laws.

Visitation is on Friday, June 14 from 9:30 – 11:15 a.m. at Plombon Funeral Home in Stanley followed by the Mass of Christian Burial at Holy Family Church at 11:30 a.m.. Internment follows at Holy Family cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, consider honoring Ruth and celebrating her memory by doing as she did--make a generous donation to those in need and perform daily acts of kindness.

Donations received by the family will be contributed to local food pantries in Ruth’s name.

Sincere gratitude to those who helped care for Ruth in her home including St. Joseph's Home Health and Hospice.

“Through many dangers, toils and snares We have already come. T'was grace that brought us safe thus far And grace will lead us home.” “Amazing Grace” by John Newton.

Ogurek, Frank Joseph (11 March 1928 - 23 October 2012)

Frank J. Ogurek, 84, peacefully passed away on Tuesday, October 23, 2012, at Our Lady of Victory Hospital in Stanley with his wife and children by his side.

Funeral services were held on Saturday October 27, 2012, at St. Bernard-St. Hedwig Catholic Church in Thorp, WI, at 10:30 a.m. Visitation was at 9:30 a.m. and the burial was at St. Hedwig’s Catholic Cemetery immediately after the service.

Frank Joseph Ogurek was born on March 11, 1928, in Chicago, IL. He was the son of Frank A. and Valeria (Tarka) Ogurek and was an only child. He grew up in Lublin, WI, where his father ran the Ogurek Lumber and Fuel business. Frank went to Withee High School where he met his future wife, Mary Zawacki. They were married on September 4, 1948, at St. Hedwig’s Catholic Church.

Frank and Mary began their life together in Chicago, where they worked until the birth of their first child. Shortly after, they moved back to Lublin where Frank started his own business as a milk hauler. A few years later, he moved to Thorp, where he continued to haul milk for many years. Frank hauled milk for Lombard Dairy, Blue Moon Dairy, and others. He spent a lot of time plowing snow in the winter and pumping the lift for the plow by hand. A memorable moment was when he got an electric hydraulic pump and no longer had to manually pump the lift. He also hauled cheese from multiple dairies to processing plants in the area. Frank also raised chickens for Arcadia Fryers for many years, along with raising feeder pigs and later raising his own Hereford beef cattle. After selling his trucking business to his son, Tom, in 1986, he went to work at the Clark County Health Care Center. He also worked nights at Stanley Corporation and retired in 1991.

Frank’s true passions were his faith, family, and helping others. More than anything, he was loving, caring, wise, patient and hardworking. He embraced his Polish heritage by participating in the Polish Folk Dancing Group and the Polish Heritage Society. He was active with the Catholic Church, the Thorp Historical Society, the Knights of Columbus and the Thorp School Board. With his wife, Mary, Frank was a devoted volunteer for the county by driving people in need to their doctor appointments. He also enjoyed playing cards, bowling, traveling, camping, polka dancing, and socializing with his family and friends. Frank was always there to brighten the lives of others.

Frank is survived by his wife, Mary (Zawacki) Ogurek; son, Dennis Ogurek of Altoona, WI; daughter, Patricia Foss of Greendale, WI; two grandchildren: Luke and Lisa Foss of Milwaukee; daughter, Judy (Gordon) Oler of Mondovi, WI; grandchild, Andy Oler of Richland Center, WI; daughter, Connie Ogurek of Golden, CO; granddaughters: Stacey Slowiak (Gary Davidson) of Colorado Springs, CO, and Ronda (Brian) Landress of Colorado Springs, CO; great-grandchildren: Cameron and Jack Landress; son, Thomas Ogurek of Withee, WI; and daughter, Terri Ernst of Owen, WI; grandchildren: Mitchel, Jared, Erica and Emily.

Roger Girard Schmidt of Conifer, Colorado, passed away peacefully in his sleep on July 17 at the age of 58 years old. Born to Cliff and Joan Schmidt on October 5, 1961, he is lovingly remembered by his sons, Jackson and Leland; his parents; his siblings, Jim Schmidt, Kay Schmidt and Dennis Schmidt; and their children.

Roger grew up in Thorp, WI, where he helped on the family farm. His love of animals led him to having numerous pets, including a goat, a sheep, turkeys, ducks, geese, guinea hens and banties. He was most often seen running around barefoot with a hen on his shoulder. As he grew up, he always said he would one day live in Colorado. After high school he attended college in Wausau and Eau Claire before moving to Colorado to finish his education in Computer Programming, at which point he had achieved his dream of living high up in the Rocky Mountains with his dogs Flip & Max (and later with Tucker & Murphy).

He will be fondly remembered for his daily postings on social media where his puns, quick quips and genuine humor brought laughter and good memories to others.

There will be a private burial in Thorp, WI. At a future date a Remembrance of Life will be held for extended family and friends.
