Notes:

Lenora Faye Plunkett Wooge Kalkwarf was born on a farm between Manley and Weeping Water, Nebraska to Enos Siebert Plunkett and Lena Faye Plunkett on August 29th, 1937. Her brothers were Arthur, Donnie and George. Her sisters were Dorothy and Kathryn. In 1954 she moved to Weeping Water where her parents had a nursing home.

She was married to Edward Wooge until their divorce. She then married Larry Kalkwarf. For most of her life she was a cook, and a fantastic one at that. One of the things that she loved best was feeding family and friends. She retired in 2000.

In 2017 she moved to Southlake Village where she passed into God's loving arms on February 3rd, 2021.

Over the years she made many, many friends. She loved her family with all of her heart as well as the large number of friends who came her way. She loved animals of every shape, size, and kind. Her favorite color was purple. She really loved putting puzzles together and playing games, especially cards with her friends at Southlake Village.

Her children were Linda, married to Greg Soukup, Edward Wooge, Allen Wooge, Carol Wooge, Janice Mitzner, married to Ken Mitzner and Anna Funk, married to Gary.

Grandchildren were Frank Soukup, married to Kimberly; Christina Thietje, married to Tyler; James Soukup married to Elizabeth; Edwin Wooge; Joshua Wooge, Tara Funk and Conner Wooge.

Great grandchildren are Aubrie and Alexander Thietje, Kaylyn and Jessa Soukup and Evan, Corbin and Haley Wooge.

She also had numerous nephews, nieces and cousins.

She was preceded in death by her parents, husbands, sister Dorothy, brother Donnie, daughter Janice and great grandson Evan.

To say that she lived life to the fullest would be an understatement.

She was loved by all, and she will be missed.
