Harvey Jay Sladek, 86, of Thrall, left us Wednesday, Aug. 30, 2023, creating a void that his vibrant life had once filled. Born June 19, 1937, in Thrall, Harvey was a cherished child of Albert and Sophie Sladek.
He embarked on his educational journey at Thrall High School, graduating in 1955, with a foundation of knowledge that would serve him well throughout life.
On Nov. 25, 1962, he joined his life with Carolyn Johnson in a union of love and companionship. Their journey together blessed them with three sons, Leslie Keith and Connie Sladek, Lynn David Sladek, and Leland Jay and Joan Sladek.
Harvey’s legacy extended beyond his immediate family to encompass six grandchildren and 11 greatgrandchildren, a testament to the love and connections he fostered.
As he joins those who have gone before, Harvey is reunited with his parents, his sister, Elaine Gaida; and his brother, Eugene Sladek.
In honor of his memory, a memorial service will be conducted Tuesday, Sept. 5, at 10 a.m. at Providence Funeral Home.
Should you wish to make a tribute, contributions can be directed to Immanuel Lutheran Church of Pflugerville or a charity that holds personal significance.
May the memory of Harvey Jay Sladek’s welllived life bring comfort to all who knew and loved him.
