Burial will be in the Bohemian National Cemetery following the service. Memorials are directed to the family for later designation.

Harriet Estella (Jansky) Synovec was born on September 9.1028, on a farm near Tobias, Nebraska and passed away on November 19, 2016, at the Wilber Care Center at the age of 88 years 2 months and 10 days.

Harriet, one of five children, attended school in Tobias through the 12th grade graduating in 1945. While attending high school she received her teaching accreditation. The family moved to a farm 5 miles east of Milligan, and at that time she taught at Opossum Hill School, many days walking 1 ? miles to and from school. She worked for 2 years saving money to purchase a kitchen table and dresser for her new home with Milton.

Harriet married Milton Synovec on June 9, 1948 in Wilber, Nebraska. They made their home on a farm 8 miles east of Milligan, Nebraska where they farmed and raised their four children, Gene, Carol, Cindy and Gale. Together her and Milton ran a repair shop with Harriet being the bookkeeper for the business. Harriet was a housewife and mother and was willing to help wherever needed.

Harriet loved working with her flowers, gardening, canning and freezing all the produce to be used to feed the family, and as they grew it came in very handy when they would pop in for a visit. She loved her family and after the arrival of 9 grandchildren and 18 great grandchildren time was spent with them learning to bake cookies and breads for them all to take home. She enjoyed spending time reading to the grandkids curled up on her lap. She also raised chickens and ducks and the grandkids would help gather the eggs and was affectionately known to all "Grandma Chicken." One of Harriet's special hobbies was making denim quilts out of Grandpas old overalls, which was presented to each grandchild and they are still enjoying them today.

Harriet and Milton continued to live on the farm until Milton's health failed and was moved to the Friend Nursing Home, passing away in 2009. Harriet made the decision to go to the Wilber Care Center in July of 2014. There she made many friends with the residents and staff and enjoyed visiting doing word search and watching television. Harriet was a very caring person and even in her final days would ask about the well being of the family.

Harriet is survived by her children; Gene and wife Dorothy Synovec of Western, Carol and husband Dr. Bruce Kennedy of Crete, Cindy and husband Gary Kastanek, of Tobias, Gale and husband Curtis Zach of Wilber; Grandchildren Stacey and husband Cory Nickel, Heather and husband Tim Sejkora, Gwen Thompson, Jennifer and husband Jeff Meinke, Jon and wife Shannon Kennedy, Amanda and husband Jason Dean, Jim Synovec, Josh Zach, and Jessie Zach and 18 Great Grandchildren. Sister, Marian and husband Walt Umphlett of Santa Maria, California, brother Larry and wife Diane Jansky of Milligan. Sisters-in-law Shirley and husband Richard Brunkow of Milligan and Mary Jansky of Milligan.

They were married on October 22, 1966, and are the parents of Shelly (July 27, 1968), Jeffrey (October 7, 1970), and Jody (September 16, 1974). (Milligan, p 317).

Obituary, Courtesy of Dennis Belohlavy, from Farmer and Son Funeral Home

A Memorial Service for Larry will be held on Thursday, March 23, 2023 at 11:00 a.m. at Farmer & Son Funeral Home - Kotas Chapel in Milligan, Nebraska. Kim Dunker will preside over the Memorial Service.

It was Larry's wish to be cremated and there will be no visitation.

Memorials are suggested to the Milligan Fire & Rescue.

Larry William Jansky was born on September 2, 1944 to William and Mamie (Simacek) Jansky in Friend, Nebraska. Larry was the youngest of five children. He married Diane Hromadka on October 22, 1966. Together they had three children: Shelley, Jeffrey and Jody. Larry passed away at Heritage Crossing in Geneva, Nebraska at the age of 78 years and 6 months after numerous health issues.

Larry grew up on the family farm East of Milligan. He attended District #100 for grades K-8th and spent his high school years at Milligan High School. Larry played drums in the band, football and ran track. He graduated in 1963. After graduation, Larry entered the National Guard and served for six years out of the York Unit. Larry picked up electrical skills from Curly Kotas, and this trade definitely came in handy when remodeling.

Larry worked alongside his father on the family farm. He took over the farm when his dad retired and moved to Milligan. Larry raised many different crops including milo, corn, wheat and soybeans. He enjoyed cutting hay and running the combine. Larry also raised cattle, hogs, and many feathered friends. Larry's dedication to farming and his family is admirable.

Larry volunteered as a firefighter and was extremely proud of the new Milligan Rescue Unit. During his free time, Larry enjoyed watching his grandchildren play sports, hauling them around on the Gator and playing family games of wiffle ball in the front yard. This became a family tradition at every holiday, weather permitting. Some of Larry's favorite hobbies included having coffee with his friends at Co-Op, Ron's Tavern and HWY 141 Express, checking his cows, and watching CNN and old Westerns.

It was a huge honor for Larry to receive the Nebraska Pioneer Farm Award for having land in the family for 100 plus years. This award was given to the Simacek-Jansky family farm established in 1915. He also received the Quilt of Valor for his years of service in the National Guard.

Larry was preceded in death by his parents, William and Mamie Jansky; in-laws, Frank and Alma Hromadka; siblings, Leslie Jansky, Lumir Jansky, and Harriet Synovec; his brothers-in-law, Milton Synovec and Gary Filipi; and his niece Karen Umplett.

Larry is survived by his wife, Diane Janksy; children Shelley Domant, Jeff Jansky, Jody Kerchal (Matt Kerchal); his six grandchildren: Mitchell Domant, Grant Domant, Kate Jansky, Cameran Jansky, Zoe Kerchal and Hudson Kerchal; his sister, Mariann Umplett; and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, friends and neighbors. It is clear that Larry was well-loved and will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and community.
