      ROGERS, MINN. – A memorial Mass will be held on Saturday, Jan. 11, at 11 a.m. at Our Lady of Sorrows Parish at St. Matthias Church with Fr. Martin Celuch and Msgr. Peter Polando officiating for Theresa A. Smrecansky, 85, who went to be with the Lord on Dec. 31, 2013, after a very short illness.

      Theresa was born May 15, 1928, in Youngstown, a daughter of Stephen and Catherine Dvornitsky Rakocy.

      She retired in 1974, from Ohio Bell, where she worked as an operator for 28 years.

      She was a member of St. Matthias Church, where she was a part of the Bereavement Committee. She was a past president of the Joseph Kostic First Catholic Slovak Union, former vice-president of JEDNOTA No. 731, a member of the Infant Jesus of Prague Guild, Alter and Rosary Society, Holy Name Society, the Lansingville Ladies Political Club, Ladies PA Lodge, and the Catholic Slovak Federation.

      She leaves to cherish her memories, her children, Judie (Ron) Vasko of Maple Grove, Minn. and Bob (Shanna) Smrecansky of Sammamish, Wash.; and grandchildren, Stacie Vasko Richter (Mike) and Katelyn and Ben Smrecansky. Theresa also leaves behind many relatives, godchildren and friends.

      Other than her parents, she was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Joseph Smrecansky, whom she married Aug. 28, 1948, and preceded her Sept. 15, 1992; sisters, Ann Stanislaw, Margaret Roberts, Mary Rohovsky and Sr. Mary Delphine; and brothers, Stephen, Joseph, Andrew and Michael Rakocy.

      The Smrecansky family has entrusted their loved one to the care of the Kubina-Yuhasz-Wasko Funeral Home, Boardman.

      The family will receive friends from 10 to 11 a.m. on Saturday at the church.

      Private inurnment will take place at Calvary Cemetery.

      The family wishes to extend its heartfelt thanks to the staff of The Wellstead of Rogers and North Memorial Hospice, who did their upmost to comfort Theresa on her final journey.

      In lieu of flowers, memorials are preferred to American Cancer Society or Alzheimers Association.
