    Anna Placek was born February 27, 1910 to Louis Placek and Anna Hodek in Milligan, Nebraska and she passed away on September 24, 2011 at the Exeter Care Center in Exeter, Nebraska.

    Anna's mother passed away during the flu epedemic and she and her six siblings were left to be cared for by her father. Anna attended school until the 10th grade when she decided to give up school after coming home one day to find her father had her younger sister on his lap and her younger brother on a chair beside him and he was trying to keep the young children warm by a stove. At this point in Anna's life, she knew that she needed to stay home and help her father care for the children so that he could provide for the family. It was not uncommon for children to be adopted out to other family members when a mother would die. When Anna made the choice to stay home with her younger siblings, it allowed the family to stay together. Anna often recalled how her father was such a kind man. He was stern with the children but always fair. She was always proud of the fact that the family was able to remain together after the passing of her mother.

    Anna enjoyed farm life and told people that it was the best place to live. Her family lived north of Milligan and in 1936 her father bought a farm between Fairmont and Exeter and the family resided there.

    Anna's father passed away in 1951, and Anna, her sister, and her brother stayed on the farm until 1974. Anna then moved into Milligan and helped her sister in the grocery store putting groceries on the shelf.

    Anna enjoyed reading jokes, and she also enjoyed sharing jokes with other people and visiting with people in general. Anna was a very caring person and she always felt bad when someone was sick and she would do what she could to take care of them.
    When Anna could no longer care for herself, she became a resident of the Exeter Care Center. She met many friends there who were residents and staff. She particularly enjoyed visiting with Dale Mizner.

    Anna is survived by all of her friends and the staff of the Exeter Care Center and the kind people on the Hospice team.

    She was preceded in death by her parents Louis and Anna; brother Louis; and sisters Rose, Leona, Velma, and Angeleen.
