Theresa was a member of the Holy Family Altar Society, the Holy Family Social Club, and St. Veronica Lodge, KSKJ Life. After a short career with TWA, she became a homemaker, raising her six children and later enjoying her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She was so proud of all of them. Theresa was also proud of her Slovenian heritage and made many Slovenian specialties such as potica and strudel. She enjoyed many hobbies throughout her life including crocheting, making afghans for all her children and grandchildren, ceramics, making piggy banks for all the grandchildren, and many nativity sets.
Gerald was honored to have served in the United States Navy. He was a member of the Holy Family Holy Name Society, the Holy Family Social Club, St. Veronica Lodge, KSKJ Life, and was a member of the school board at Bishop Ward High School. Gerald spent half his career as a self-employed businessman, and he retired from a career at the United States Postal Service. He enjoyed carpentry, using his skills to remodel his sons and daughters starter homes after marriage. He enjoyed his time farming on his land in Pleasant Hill, Missouri, and later his son and daughter-in-laws farm in Lawrence, Kansas. Gerald was an avid KU basketball fan who once requested his cardiologist to delay his procedure until after the basketball game that weekend. He spent his free time talking with and about his grandchildren and great grandchildren.
Both Theresa and Gerald were dedicated parishioners of Holy Family Catholic Church and its various organizations and were happy to serve in any capacity needed.
