Eleanora Doty Coufal Friemel, 94, passed away peacefully November 4, 2019 in Katy, Texas. She was born December 4, 1924, in Fayetteville to William Coufal and Louisa Slovacek Coufal. She grew up and went to school in Fayetteville with her two sisters and five brothers. The youngest girl, she was affectionately called Beba by her mother. She met Gus H.

They built a home in La Grange and raised their two children there until the family moved to Port Lavaca in 1956. In 1982, Gus retired, and he and Eleanora returned to their home in La Grange. Eleanora was a homemaker who loved to laugh and have fun with her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She always had a piece of handwork to do, knitting, crocheting, sewing, quilting arid embroidery. She had a green thumb which was apparent in her flowers and garden every year. Α good cook, she liked to bake and treated friends and family to kolaches, French bread, cookies and especially pies.
