1915-2009

Victoria Lee (Sekula) Dupnick passed into rest during the early morning of Tuesday, Oct. 13, 2009, at the age of 93 in Spring, Texas.

She was born on Dec. 6, 1915, on a farm near Cestohowa to Bernice Gabrysch and Ignatz Sekula.

She only had two years of elementary education and did not learn English until she moved to San Antonio and taught herself to read and write. She placed a high value on education, and her sons all went to college.

She was fondly known to her friends as “Vickie.” She was employed for many years as a seamstress at Finesilver Manufacturing and as a production manager for Universal Book Bindery in San Antonio. She met her husband, Sylvester, on a blind date at a dance in Panna Maria. Her greatest calling and first priority was as a mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother to her three sons, nine grandchildren, 14 great-grandchildren, and numerous nieces and nephews. They could always depend on her unconditional love, acceptance, and support. She loved them all and instilled in them her family values, sense of humor, work ethic, love of education, and zest for life. She was there to help whenever they needed her.

Vickie was a devout Catholic and an active member of St. Cecilia’s Catholic Church. She was one of the first members of St. Margaret Mary’s in 1955. She was an active member of the Catholic Daughters of America.

Vickie was preceded in death by her husband of 62 years, Sylvester; her parents; sisters Minnie Casares and Katie Dorsey; and brothers Leon Sekula and
Anton Sekula.

In addition to her other surviving family, Vickie is survived by her brother, Ben Sekula; three sisters, Mary Vaughn, Bernice Stein, and Christine Ingle; and three sons, Max Dupnick and wife Joan, Ed Dupnick and wife Kelly, and Roy Dupnick and wife Betty.

A rosary was recited on Friday, Oct. 16, at 7 p.m. in the Mission Park Funeral Chapel South in San Antonio.

The funeral Mass was offered on Saturday at 9 a.m. in the St. Margaret Mary Catholic Church in San Antonio.

Interment followed in the family plot at St. Mary’s Cemetery in Panna Maria.

The family has requested a donation to the Alzheimer’s Association.
