Bio
Frank Hromadka, son of John and Anna Kral Hromadka, was born November 17, 1885, on a farm three miles north of Milligan. He passed away November 24, 1964, at the Fillmore County Hospital in Geneva, Neb., at the age of 79 years, and 7 days after being hospitalized about five weeks following a stroke October 16. He attended school in District No. 6 in his boyhood days, later attending Fremont College and the College of Agriculture at Lincoln. He grew to manhood in Fillmore County and lived there all his life. February 22, 1909, he was united in marriage to Miss Anna Herynk. They made their home on a farm one and one-half miles north and one-half mile east of Milligan, where his son, Milo and family now reside. To this union were born three daughters and four sons, Mrs. Harold (Emma) Kubicek of Tobias, Mrs. Ray (Ann) Seidelman of Kansas City, Mo., Miss Helen Hromadka of Geneva, Frank H. Hromadka of Tobias, John Hromadka of Milligan, Ralph Hromadka of Hasings and Milo Hromadka of Milligan. He took much interest in raising good livestock and procuring better rain. He won several ribbons in a state corn exhibition, placing first in a National Corn Show of which he was very proud over the years. His lifelong hobby was planting trees and caring for flowers. He enjoyed watching his trees grow. Mr. and Mrs. Hromadka lived on the farm until May 28, 1952 when they moved to their home in Milligan. After moving to town, he was still very active and enjoyed driving out to the farm to help with the chores or lend a hand where and when needed. Each spring, he and his wife planted a very large garden and enjoyed sharing the products with their children. He was a kind and loving husband, father and grandfather. He took pride i his grandchildren and treasured their devotion to "grandpa." He was presented with a 50-year membership pin by Lodge Milligan February 16, 1958. Mr. and Mrs. Hromadka celebrated their golden wedding anniversary February 22, 1959. Preceding him in death were his parents, a brother, Dr. August B. Hromadka of Santa Monica, Cal., and a sister, Mrs. Julia Zerzan of Holyrood, Kas. He is survived by his wife, Anna; three daughters, four sons, 14 grandchildren; two sons-in-law; four daughters-in-law; four sisters, Mrs. Jennie Kubicek and Mrs. Rudolph Capek of Milligan, Mrs. Pauline Bures of Fairmont and Mrs. William Votipka of Lincoln; many other relatives and friends. Funeral services were held Friday, November 27, at 2 p.m. at the Milligan auditorium with Rev. Sherman Ragsdell officiating. The song service was rendered by Mrs. Leslie Shrivanek and Mrs. Albert Naimon. They sang "Kazdy Nese Svuj Kriz" and "In the Garden." Mrs. Mary Cecrle spoke in behalf of the Lodge Milligan No. 420.
