Mrs. G. E. Krapf Was Found Dead in Home
on Monday Afternoon

When G. E. Krapf entered his residence on East Houghton Street on Monday afternoon after working in his garden, he found his wife dead in bed. She had been in apparent good health and had lain down to rest before Mr. Krapf left the house. Mr. and Mrs. Krapf were honered by a large group of friends at an "at home" gathering in the social room of the Evangelical United Brethern Church the previous afternoon, the occasion being their 50th wedding anniversary. Funeral services were conducted at the Evangelical United Brethern Church on Thursday afternoon by Rev. S.R. Wurtz, the pastor. Interment was made in Elkland cemetery. Mrs. Krapf was born in Goppingen, Germany, September 28, 1865, the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Rudolph Kaiser. She came to the country and settled in Cass City in 1888 with her brother, the late William Kaiser, and sister, now Mrs. Samuel Striffler, of San Diego, California.

On July 10, 1890, she was united in marriage with George Emanuel Krapf in the Evangelical parsonage at Caro. Following their marriage, they made their home on a farm one mile north and two and a half miles east of Cass City, where they resided for three years. Then they moved to a farm two and one half miles east and one quarter mile south of Cass City. Here they lived for fifty years prior to moving to Cass City where she made her home until her death.

Mrs. Krapf has been a member of the Evangelical United Brethren Church for the past sixty years. She is survived by her husband and one sister, Mrs. Samuel Striffler, of San Diego, California. One half brother and one stepsister preceded her in death.

11676 I48468  Kasl  George Franklin  9 Jul 1933  9 Apr 2023  0  George Franklin "Junior" Kasl, Jr. of Dorchester, Nebraska went to his heavenly home on April 9, 2023 at Bryan East Hospital in Lincoln, at the age of 89 years, and nine months.

He was born on the family farm near Tabor Hall on July 9, 1933, the eighth of nine children, to George Sr. and Emma (Rezabek) Kasl. Jr. attended Mount Pleasant Country School, District 62, followed by a year at Dorchester High School. He then decided to leave school to help on the family farm. Jr. served in the Army National Guard for nine years, and during that time he met the love of his life, Shirley, at a dance at Tabor Hall.

He was united in marriage to Shirley Ann Ripa on June 12, 1956, and they made their home on the Kasl family home place where Jr. had grown up. They enjoyed their lives on the farm and stayed busy raising hogs, sheep, chickens, and cattle. They loved kids and spent many summers hosting their nieces and nephews on the farm. After 15 years of marriage, they were blessed with their only son, George F. Kasl, III, or "Georgie" as he was affectionately called. He was the absolute light of their lives and Jr. was so proud to take him along wherever he went and show him off to everyone. Nothing gave him more pleasure than being a dad. He loved spending time with Georgie throughout his years in Boy Scouts, and was a Scout leader part of that time as well. When Georgie got interested in showing cattle, Jr. found himself with a new hobby, too, as he spent many hours going to cattle shows and sales, and later on taking loads to Columbus for embryo transfers or to the sale barn. He enjoyed helping with the cattle chores around the farm, and could always be found puttering around and "fixing fence." That pride and love extended to his grandchildren when they came along, and he and Shirley rarely missed any of the kids' events. They were incredibly supportive with each and every one of their granddaughters' activities, whether it was sports, music concerts, dance or showing animals in 4-H. He was very proud that he and Shirley received the 2022 Friends of 4-H award for the many years of supporting their family and the youth of Saline County.

Besides his family, Jr.'s one true love was farming, and he was a Northrup King seed dealer for many years. He especially loved his wheat and milo, and enjoyed sowing his wheat the most. He was always concerned about the weather, and enjoyed watching the weather channel and listening to the markets and the weather on KRVN (even though the station is over 2 hours away!). Even after retiring from farming, he always wanted to drive around and check the fields to see how the crops were coming along. Having to give up driving himself around was especially difficult, but his family and neighbors made sure he still got to experience planting and harvest as much as possible. Jr. was very proud to be a member of August-Vanek Legion Post #264. He enjoyed attending Legion meetings and helping with the various activities, and was honored to be presented with a Quilt of Valor in March 2022. He was also very active throughout the years at WFLA Tabor Lodge #74 and had received his 50 year pin. He loved both attending and helping at dances at the hall. He was proud of his Czech heritage and loved listening to polkas, and maybe enjoying a pivo or two, especially with tomato juice. On Saturday nights, he could be found watching Mollie B., and rarely missed listening to the All Star Polka show on Sunday mornings. He always looked forward to Czech Days, and getting his annual pin was a must. Jr. also found a special friend in his cat, Blackie, and the two of them enjoyed each other's company tremendously.

Jr. is survived by his loving wife of 66 years, Shirley; his son and daughter in law, George, III and Jenni Kasl; granddaughters, Emma Kasl and special friend, Landon Scott; Cassidy Olson and special friend Brandon Bruha; Quinn Kasl and Kendall Kasl; great-granddaughters, Aleah Wendelin and Emerson Scott; brothers and sisters-in-law, Bob and Marva Kasl; Rich and Shirley Kasl; and Evelyn Kasl, all of Dorchester; brother-in-law, Kenny Ripa, Wilber; many nieces, nephews and a host of other relatives.

Jr. was preceded in death by his parents; mother and father-in-law, Victor and Emma Ripa; sisters and brothers-in-law, Evelyn and Elmer Branzovsky; Helen and Edward Halada; Dorothy and Lumir Kotas; Gladys & Warren Burda; brothers and sisters-in-law Ed and Rosella Kasl; Frank Kasl; Darlene Kasl; and several nieces and nephews. Funeral Services will be held on Friday, April 14, 2023 at 2:00 PM at Dorchester United Methodist Church. Visitation will be on Thursday from 5 - 8 PM at Kuncl Funeral Home in Crete. Memorials are in care of the family for future designation. Arrangements entrusted to Kuncl Funeral Home in Crete.

Dean Michael Kassik was born to Laura (Bigelow) Kassik and Dean Albert Kassik on June 9, 1990 in Geneva, NE. He passed away on June 20, 2017 in Milligan, Nebraska at the young age of 27.

Dean Michael was so very loved and from the very beginning has always been the center of his parent's and sister's world. He was always very high spirited and from a young age he had an eye for adventure and was gifted with extreme intelligence. Deanie loved more than anything to dance, was the life of the party most times, and enjoyed cracking jokes and making people laugh.

Dean went through school with a 4.0 and was the valedictorian of his class. He participated in all four sports during all four years of his high school career. He was on the speech team, quiz bowl, class play, class officer (president of his class) and earned high honors each year. Upon graduation he attended the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and was a semester away from graduating with his Accounting degree.

Deanie had a very tender heart. He loved his nieces very much and they brought so much joy to his life. He truly enjoyed spending time with them and would often refer to them as "his five girls". He simply adored his two sisters, and would often say how lucky he was to rely on both of them for lifes advice throughout his years. Deanie idolized his father and admired his strong work ethic. Deanie's first true love was, of course, his mom, Laura. Dean recently learned how to make moms signature "meatloaf", and was excited to have more cooking lessons.

Deanie worked at Kassik Milling, the family business, throughout his teen years, and majority of his adult life. He tried very hard to accomplish all tasks he was given and took so much pride in helping his Dad and Uncle Mike "run" Kassik Milling-always saying how some day he was gonna take over and make his father proud.

Deanie struggled with mental illness. He found the Lord, and became deeply devoted to Christ, praying many times throughout the day, and attending church every Sunday. He encouraged others to pray with him and talk about Christ. He often spoke of gods grace and mercy and how he was destined for Heaven-truly a walking angel on this earth.

Dean Michael Kassik was preceded in death by His grandparents Leonard Kassik and Henry & Roma Bigelow.

He is survived by his parents Laura & Dean Kassik: sisters and brother-in-law Abbey Kassik, Ashley & Steven Havel; Grandmother Arlene Kassik; nieces Ava, Lilly, Livia, Kora, and Laney; and a host of Aunts, Uncles, cousins, and friends. 		 STR06
