Bio
Frances Hosek passed away peacefully in her home at the age of 95 on Friday, Aug. 23, 2024. She was born in Ennis, Texas, on Nov. 16, 1928, to Julius and Mary Chudej. Frances attended school in Terrell. After high school, she lived with and worked for a couple from Dallas. On weekends, she and her best friend, Martha, went dancing. Martha's cousin, Edward, was enlisting in the U.S. Army when he asked Frances to write to him. The rest of the story is history! Frances and Edward were married on Oct. 10, 1953. They were happily married for 67 years. Frances and Edward lived in Dallas for a short time before returning to Edward's family farm in Three Oaks. Together, they built Hosek's Egg Farm. She worked alongside Edward on the egg farm for 40 years while also taking care of the household and raising their six children; Gerry, Nancy, Carl, Glenn, Kenneth, and Rose. Frances enjoyed cooking, canning, and baking. She always had a sweet treat ready when the kids came home from school. That tradition remains in the Hosek family today. Everyone knows that desserts will be served midafternoon. No one leaves before then. Frances and Edward worked hard, but always found time to go dancing or visit friends to play dominoes or cards. They traveled all over South Texas and beyond to go dancing and made many long-lasting friendships along the way. Listening to Polka music was one of their favorite pastimes. Frances was a member of the Blessed Sacrament Church in Poth, where she was a member of the Altar Society. She was a lifetime member of the Poth VFW Auxiliary Post 8555. Frances was preceded in death by her husband, Edward; her parents, Julius and Mary Chudej; brothers John, Joe, and Jerry Chudej; and sister Rosalea Chudej Noska. Frances is survived by her children, Gerry (LeAnn), Nancy, Carl (Peggy), Glenn (Pam Parish), and Kenneth (Carol) Hosek, and Rose (Gordon) Labus; grandchildren Jonathan Hosek (Elizabeth), Justin Hosek (Kristina), Jerilee Laughlin (Gary), Jordan Hosek (Tracy), Harmony Doege (Terry), Matthew Hosek and fiancée Chelsea Doege, Haley Labus (Brent Butler), Kaitlin Labus, Jared Labus and fiancée Meagan Dinh, Jerrek Hosek (Kathleen Vogt), and Erynn Hosek and fiancé Garrison Moczygemba; great-grandchildren Kylie, Trentyn, Kaleb, Kamryn, Teagyn, Tildyn, Tinley, Taylin, Troit, and Terik Hosek, Drake Laughlin, Morgan and Renee Doege; sisters-in-law Mary Rose Pell and Frances Chudej; and numerous nieces and nephews. A visitation will be held on Friday, Aug. 30, from 9-10 a.m., in Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church, in Poth. A Rosary will be recited Friday at 10 a.m., followed by a funeral Mass at 10:30 a.m. Entombment will follow the services at Blessed Sacrament Mausoleum in Poth. Frances's family would like to invite all the guests to join them for a lunch reception at the parish hall immediately following the graveside service. Pallbearers are her grandsons, Jonathan, Justin, Jordan, Matthew, and Jerrek Hosek, and Jared Labus. Honorary pallbearers are Charles Pawelek and Roger Schneider. The family would like to thank Sandra Talley, her caretaker for the last year, for her kindness and compassionate care. The family also appreciates the loving care provided to Frances during her final days by Cherie, Marisol, and Bryan from Trinity Hospice.
