Obituary of Barbara Marie Pramuka
Barbara Marie Pramuka (Danko)
On December 27th, 2010, Barbara Marie Pramuka (Danko), 80, found eternal peace as heaven's gate welcomed her after a sudden illness. All those who knew her will feel a void in their hearts because of the tremendous love she bestowed on all she knew. She was one of the most caring and loving individuals you could have the pleasure of knowing. Her smile and the twinkle in her eyes could make you feel as though you were the most important person in the world. A woman of great faith and strength, she was truly a gift from God.
She worked as a nurse in labor and delivery at Akron City Hospital and retired after 25 years of service. A dedicated and hard working person, she never complained and faced each day with a smile on her face to the very end. Her pride and joy revolved around devoting each day to her husband Frank and her family.
She is survived by her husband, Frank, of 52 years; children, Mark (Marianne), Barb Von Gunten (Dave), Gary (Sharon), and John (Terese); grandchildren, Tiffany and Curt Von Gunten, Joe (Brigette), Jim, Matthew, Anna Rose, Lilly and Ella Pramuka; great- grandson Jaxon Pramuka; brothers, Robert (Rosalie) and Leonard Danko; and, over 50 nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by sisters, Ann Steiner and Martha Breiding.
The family will receive friends TODAY from 5 to 8 p.m. at the Anthony Funeral Home KUCKO-ANTHONY-KERTESZ CHAPEL, 1990 S. Main St. in Akron. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated by Fr. Ralph Thomas on Thursday at 10 a.m. at St. Paul Catholic Church on Brown St. in Akron. Interment will follow at Holy Cross Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to St. Paul Catholic Church, 1580 Brown St., Akron, OH 44301.
