Obituary of Josephine Hauck

Josephine Hauck was born November 5, 1944 on the family farm north of Tyndall, SD and went to be with her heavenly father on her birthday at the age of 72. Steve & Josephine Ann (Bartunek) Misar were blessed with their 4th child. Jo was the youngest of the 4 children. They taught her the value of hard work and instilled it into all 4 of their children on the family farm. That work ethic carried on with Jo into her present life and she instilled it into her family. On February 26, 1967 she united into marriage with Orville Hauck. To this union they had four children; Brian, Alan, Gary and John. Together they farmed many, many years on the family farm southeast of town. Along with being a homemaker, Jo worked at Ed’s Food Market for many years and currently at the Menno-Olivet Care Center as a Housekeeper and Laundry Aide. She enjoyed her work very much; it brought much joy to her to see her co-workers and residents and with giving them a hug and a friendly smile. Another passion of hers was the enormous toy tractor collection that her and her boys collected together. She was always willing and proud to display the featured tractors at the Pioneer Power Show. If it was Oliver tractors being featured that year you knew Jo would be calling the boys 2-3 times a day asking which tractor they were bringing and spending countless hours washing them and getting them ready. Orville and Jo were also proud members of the Tri-State Old Iron Tractor Club, where Jo was the Secretary. Orville and Jo had many wonderful tractor rides together and the group throughout the years. With her caring and giving heart she always gave 110% towards her family and friends with her loving ability of canning, baking and just her phone calls. She is survived by her loving husband, Orville, 4 sons and their families; Brian (Gina, Shailynn, Shamae and Joshua)-Volin, SD, Alan (Deb & Kate)-Viborg, SD, Gary (fiancé Ashley, Aiden & McKenzie) - Fulshear, TX.
