The “loves” of my life, “My Family, My Friends, My Faith, Music, Dancing, Cooking, Baking, and Fishing.” Helen was a member to several organizations such as Social Member KJT, Sokol Gymnast, Fort Worth Friendship Club, Catholic Daughters, and a member at St. John the Apostle Catholic Church.

The times we saw her smile as greatly beyond her words above, were during travel to the Czech Republic and meeting the extended family. Then, at the beach in South Carolina, she struggled to walk in the soft sand only to find firm ground at the waters edge, then walked so far, so quickly, thought we had lost her.

Helen was preceded in death by her husband, Joe Skrasek in 1987; parents, Frank W. Sonka and Mary (Skrivanek) Sonka; grandson, Jason Wain Skrasek in 2008; sister, Adele (Janak) Strand in 2019.

Survivors: Sons, Ron and wife, LeAnne of Okla. City, Gary and wife, Debbie of Fort Worth; grandchildren, Stephanie Skrasek Myers and husband, Knick of Knoxville, Tenn., Steven Skrasek and wife, Michelle of Arlington, Ron Jr and Misty Skrasek of Portland, Randy Skrasek of Seattle; great-grandchildren, Sara and Ella Myers of Tenn., Sebastian Skrasek of Berlin, Milla Skrasek of Portland, and Jaycie Skrasek of Arlington; brother in law, Harold Strand; and many nieces and nephews who fondly called her “My Favorite Aunt Helen.”
