Agnes Ann Prachyl
October 11, 1932 - May 12, 2021
On Wednesday, May 12, 2021 our sweet mother passed away at the age of 88.
Agnes was born in Ennis Texas on October 11, 1932 to Joseph and Agnes Marusak. The
second oldest daughter of 13 children, mom grew up in Ennis where she attended St. Johns
Catholic school and later graduated from St. Paul's Hospital School of Nursing in Dallas. In
1954, mom began her marriage of 54 years to her true love, Edward Prachyl from Garrett Texas,
and they settled down and raised a family of five children in Dallas and since 1974 in
Richardson Texas.
Agnes spent her life surrounded by love and was a lifelong caregiver. She was blessed to be a
part of a large extended Czech family where she touched the hearts of many and enjoyed the
holidays cooking big family meals, singing beautiful harmonies, and sharing stories along with
her loving family. As a devoted daughter, she cared lovingly for her parents while raising her five
children, being active in her church, and having an extended career as a registered nurse in
Richardson.
Our mother had many passions and loved sewing, gardening, spending time at the lake, caring
for her grandchildren, and touring Texas as a member of the Texas Czech Folk Singers. She
never turned down a quick trip to Choctaw where she had an envious amount of success and
couldn't resist the urge to find a good deal at a neighborhood garage sale. As a devoted
Catholic, mom attended mass daily, ironed linens for the church, made many lasting friendships
and sang in the choir. Mom, you touched many hearts and will be fondly missed. Enjoy the
rewards you dearly deserve in Heaven.
Agnes is preceded in death by her husband Edward and her oldest daughter Sandra Kay Falk
and survived by her remaining children Paul Edward Prachyl, Steven Joseph Prachyl, and
daughters Lori Ann Garrett and Lisa Marie Lake as well as her seven grandchildren Harrison
Prachyl, Niels Falk, Jack and Jason Garrett, and Killian, Molly, and Piper Lake.
A special thank you to those who cared for our mom in her final days at the Monarch of
Richardson Memory Care Unit. You provided wonderful care in her time of need and touched
our hearts.
