Description

August 24, 1941. Marian Katarina Stanko (left) and her sister, Johanna Blazena (Jennie) Stanko (far right) pose with their uncle and aunt, Juliana and Martin Stanko and their young sisters, Betty (left) and Ann Stanko, in the chancel of the (1939) brick church, following their Confirmation ceremony. Officiant: Rev. Stephen Tuhy. The Stankos were one of the Founding Families of Slavia and built a store and gas station to serve the Slavia community in 1926. Marian grew up in the home attached to that store and served St. Luke's School as a teacher before marrying Rev. John Obeda. Jennie ultimately married Mr. Hugh Cotton. Members of the Cotton family still play active roles in St. Luke's congregation. The two youngest sisters, Betty and Ann, were raised in Cleveland after the premature death of their mother, but were visiting Florida on the occasion of their older sisters' confirmation at St. Luke's. 5x7 glossy print scanned on Epson 1000XL at SLLC, November, 2011.
