MARGIE MARIE HOWE WOSNITZKY Margie Marie Howe Wosnitzky of Rosenberg, Texas died September 16, 2010 at the age of 85. Margie was born on October 07, 1924. She was preceded in death by her parents, Harry Everett and Anna Havel Hajek Howe; by her sister, Fern Howe Albright; and by her brother, Robert Harry Howe. She was also preceded in death by her husband of more than 35 years, Frank Carl Wosnitzky. She is survived by her son, Daniel Glenn Wosnitzky and her daughter-in-law, Lupe Bridge Wosnitzky of Needville, Texas; her son David Lee Wosnitzky and daughter-in-law, Angelia Arney Wosnitzky of Houston, Texas; her grandsons, Aaron Matthew Wosnitzky of Houston, Texas, Brandon Alaster Wosnitzky of Austin, Texas, and Carlton James Wosnitzky of Houston, Texas; a granddaughter, Jennifer Nicole Wosnitzky of Houston, Texas; and one great-granddaughter, Rhea Raine Wosnitzky. She is also survived by several cousins and a host of nephews and nieces. Margie was born in the Rosenberg area where she grew-up in a farming family during the Great Depression. Like millions of others during the 1930s, she gained an invaluable appreciation for thrift, discipline, and hard work. As the story was told, she and her family had plenty to eat during this time since they were able to grow their own food while many children in town often went without. She graduated from Rosenberg High School in 1941 and had a perfect attendance record having never missed a day of school in her life. For a few months after she was out of school, Margie served as an interim teacher for a country school known as Cottonwood. Her goal in life was to be a homemaker, and on October 09, 1945, she realized her dream when she married Frank. She and Frank made their home in Rosenberg where they both lived out their lives. After the boys left for college, Margie took a job working on Mrs. Harbroth's Daycare Staff for several years and then worked at Brown's Shoe Store. Margie was a longtime member of First Baptist Church of Rosenberg. Margie was a very independent and self-sufficient individual who did not like to depend on others. She had very strong principles, and the phrase "I did it my way" is an appropriate description of her life. She was a devoted wife and was fiercely proud of her sons and grandchildren. She will be missed. Visitation will be held Sunday, September 19, 2010, from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm at Davis- Greenlawn Funeral Home at 3900 B.F. Terry Blvd. in Rosenberg, Texas 77471. Funeral services will be held at Davis-Greenlawn at 11:00 am on Monday, September 20, 2010 and will be officiated by retired Reverend Donnie Melton of the First Baptist Church in Rosenberg, Texas. Pallbearers are Aaron Wosnitzky, Brandon Wosnitzky, Richard Howe, Gary Zwahr, Chad Albright and Michael Chumchal. Honorary Pallbearers are Don Wiesner, Carlton Wosnitzky and Geoffrey Howe. In closing, the family would like to thank the Hospice Compassus for their genuine affection and loving care they provided near the end of Margie's life.
