Petkovsek, Frank Sr. (? - 29 January 1954) 
 

A funeral mass was spoken by the Rev. Fr. Augustine Svete Tuesday morning for Frank Petkovsek, Sr. 69, of Willard, who died last Friday afternoon after suffering a heart attack just outside his farm home.  Burial was made in the Holy Family parish cemetery.  
 

Mr. Petkovsek died in an ambulance enroute to a hospital.  Ailing for the past year, he had stepped outside his home when he was seized by the attack.  He slumped to the snow, and was found there by Mrs. Petkovsek. 
 

A native of Yugoslavia, Mr. Petkovsek came to Willard many years ago, and received his education there. He had engaged in farming, until a few years ago.
