Because of Covid, a socially distanced graveside service with mask required will be held on Friday, September 18, 1:30 P.M. at Calvary Cemetery, across from St. John's Lutheran Church, Shell Creek. A celebration of life will be held at a later date. It was a life well-lived. Irene was born September 24, 1918, to Walter and Elsie (Loseke) Luckey, in Platte County, Nebraska A lifelong farm woman, Irene lived during an era that was the embodiment of what America is built on: Hard work, love of family, church, community and patriotism. She married Werner Henry Hake on August 15, 1938, at St. John's Lutheran Church, Shell Creek, where she also was baptized and confirmed. She worked alongside him on the family farm near Platte Center, Nebraska, raising livestock and farming the land. Her life was focused on their five children. Irene cared for a huge garden, put up produce and was a fantastic cook. Her well-worn cookbooks are notated with whether the recipe is a good one, what changes she made and the year she first prepared it. It was learned that the way she diced an onion was practiced by the great French chefs. If someone happened to be visiting during a meal hour, a place was set for them at the family meal table. Her chocolate chip cookies and homemade cinnamon rolls are legendary. Two huge freezers in the basement of the three-story farmhouse were jammed with not only homemade delectables, but also chickens, beef and pork raised and butchered on the farm. The floor-to-ceiling shelving in that same room was filled with canned goods from her garden, ranging from the best-applesauce-ever, to tomato sauce, peaches, dill and sweet pickles to pickled beets. She and Werner enjoyed square dancing and an energetic polka on the dance floor of Oak Ballroom in Schuyler on Saturday nights. Upon retirement, the couple traveled worldwide, visiting many foreign countries and making new friends. To keep herself occupied during the long, dreary winter months of Nebraska, she crocheted doilies and bedspreads and pieced together dozens of beautiful quilts. A crocheted bedspread won her a purple ribbon at the State Fair. She loved soft-serve vanilla ice cream and was an avid reader and word puzzle enthusiast. And, she could keep up with any world news discussions. She was a member of Zion Lutheran Church of Platte Center. Irene is survived by: Daughter -- Jeanette and Dr. Leland Volker, Walton, Nebraska Son -- Dr. Lawrence Hake, world traveler Daughter -- Susan Kreifel, Olathe, Kansas Son -- Lester and Teresa Hake, Grand Island Daughter -- Karlyn Hake, Wichita, Kansas 9 Grandchildren 19 great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews Irene was preceded in death by: Parents -- Walter and Elise Luckey Husband -- Werner Hake Brother -- Clarence Luckey Brother -- Walter Luckey Brother -- Jerome Luckey Sister -- Esther Rodenburg
