Frank B. Janasek, son of Frantisek and Marie Kafka Janasek, was born in Monroe township, Johnson County, near Cedar Rapids, Ia., on February 2, 1869, and departed this life at the Belleville Hospital, Belleville, Kan., June 12, 1952, at the age of 83 years, four months and ten days.
In the year, 1871, with his parents, with practically the first group of pioneer settlers, he came to Republic County, Kansas. This family settled on a farm two miles south of Munden. Here Frank grew to young manhood.
On January 1, 1895, he was united in marriage to Miss Mary Hanel. To this union one son, Adolf, was born. The little family lived in the present neighborhood. Mr. Janasek spent 81 years of his life here.
Preceeding him in death are his father, who died in 1900; his mother, in 1917; one sister, Mrs. Helen Hanzlick, in 1924; and a brother, Joseph, who passed away in 1947. A very unique point of historical interest to our community is that Mr. Janasek's little sister, Marie, was the first of the pioneer descendants to depart this life, and whose little grave was the first opening of the prairie sod in the Tabor National cemetery. This death occurred in 1873.
Mourning Mr. Janasek's passing are; his wife, Mary; his son, Adolf, and daughter-in-law; his grandson, George, and wife, Leta, and one little great-grandson, Darell; and a great neighborhood of relatives and friends.
Mr. Janasek held no college degree, but his progressive spirit, his keen observation and his sound judgment demonstrated to everyone, he was well educated in the School of Practical Pioneer life.
Everyone in the vast neighborhood knew him. He loved people, and was loved and respected for all men. His unimpeachable honesty in every dealing with men gained him many acquaintances and if possible even more true friends. He was a lover of home and children. One of the outstanding services rendered to the public was the orderly rearrangement of the affairs of the Tabor cemetery organization, of which for a long time he was the presiding trustee.
Mr. Janasek was that type of citizen which we shall not be able to replace. That chair shall remain vacant.
Funeral services were held Saturday, June 14, at the Presbyterian church at Munden, conducted by the Rev. Amous Rundus and interment was in the Tabor Cemetery.
