The Columbus Daily Telegram , September 4, 1935 LASKA-- Polk County Resident Dies - Mrs. Scholostica Laska, 72, residing on a farm in Polk county, nine miles southwest of Columbus, passed away suddenly at 3:30 p.m. yesterday at her home. Shortly after noon she felt ill and walked to the nearby home of her son, Leo, where she asked him to notify her daughters who reside in that vicinity, and ask them to come to her home. When they arrived she already was in a critical condition, suffering from a heart attack, and her death came shortly afterward. As Miss Scholostica Czarnik, she was born on Feb. 10, 1863, at Tarnov, Poland. She came to this country with her parents when she was 14 years of age. They located on a farm in Polk county. Four years later she was married to Norbert Laska in Columbus. After their marriage they took up farming in Polk county, and she resided there until 1923, when she moved to Aberdeen, Wash., where she spent five years, returning to Polk county shortly before the death of Mr. Laska, which occurred Jan. 28, 1927. Since then she has made her home alone on her farm in Polk county. She was a member of St. Stanislaus Catholic church in Duncan. Besides her son, Leo, she is survived by two other sons, Charles Laska, of Silver Creek, and John Laska, of Columbus; four daughters, Mrs. Mary Meyerkamp and Mrs. Antonio Welch, of San Francisco, Calif., Mrs. Stacia Shemek, of Osceola, and Mrs. Cecelia Valasek, of Columbus, and 36 grandchildren. Another son, Tony, who left home 17 years ago, has not been heard from since then, but it is believed he resides in Montana. Mrs. Laska was preceded in death by one daughter, Ven. Sr. M. Theodora, who died Aug. 17, 1918. Funeral services will be held at 9:30 a.m. Saturday at St. Stanislaus Catholic church in Duncan, with Rev. Fr. Mack, pastor, officiating. Burial will be made in the parish cemetery. The body will be taken to her home Friday afternoon from the McKown Funeral home. Her daughters residing on the coast are expected to come for the services.
