Milly worked at Brenton Bank for 20 years, followed by working at Wilson-Hite Insurance, retiring after 15 years.  Milly and Carroll loved to travel, choosing to drive in order to see more sights.  National Parks and the state of Wisconsin were favorite destinations.  Milly and her sister traveled to Czechoslovakia in 1975 to visit their parent’s homeland.

Milly is survived by many nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents; Husband Carroll in 2017; 2 sisters, Anna Knaack, and Agnes Docekal; and her brother, Albert Losenicky Jr..
