Obituary
Vlasta Albina (Nedved) Blazek, 91, of Wagner
Funeral services will be 2PM, Monday, July 12, 2010 at the United Methodist Church in Wagner. Burial is in the ZCBJ Cemetery, rural Wagner. Visitation is Sunday from 2 to 6 PM with the family present from 2 to 3 PM and will continue Monday from 9 AM until noon at the Crosby-Jaeger Funeral Home in Wagner.
Vlasta Albina Blazek, daughter of John and Christina (Kubal) Nedved, was born August 25, 1918 at the family farm south of Wagner. She died Wednesday, July 7, 2010, at the Wagner Community Memorial Hospital after a short battle with cancer.
Vlasta graduated from Wagner High School in 1937. After graduation she worked at various housekeeping and waitress jobs in the area.
On January 2, 1946, she married Louis Blazek. After their marriage, they lived on a farm near Ravinia for two years and then moved to their own farm three miles south of Wagner. There they raised their two daughters, Linda and Lois.
After Louis's death on March 27, 1970, Vlasta moved into Wagner. She worked as a clerk at Stedronsky Hardware and then worked as a cook in the Wagner School lunchroom until retirement.
Vlasta was always busy making quilts, embroidering dish towels, cooking, and baking, especially kolaches and angel food cakes (from scratch). She will be remembered for always helping others, being very active in her church, and enjoying time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Vlasta was a member of the United Methodist Church, the Rachel Circle (United Methodist Women), the American Legion Auxiliary, Rebecca Lodge, Extension Club and she was recently honored as a 75-year member of ZCBJ.
Thankful for having shared her life and her love are her daughters: Linda and her husband Jay Youngbluth, Wagner, and Lois and her husband Les Sherwood, White River; three grandchildren: LaRae (Youngbluth) and her husband Steve Rogers, Plymouth, MN, Justin Youngbluth, Crystal, MN, and Lisa Sherwood, White River; two great-grandchildren: Jonathan and Kimberly Rogers; and one brother, Clarence Nedved, Wagner.
Vlasta was preceded in death by her husband and her parents.
Pallbearers are the "Tolliver Gang": Barb Thaler, Mike Tolliver, Tony Tolliver, Bob Tolliver, Lori Schrader, Dave Tolliver
