O God, help us to be worthy. Gracious God, On this Memorial Day, we pray for those who courageously laid down their lives for the cause of freedom. May the examples of their sacrifice inspire in us the selfless love of Your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.   Amen

Dear Heavenly Father, 

Our friend, Don and Daisy who are ill, we pray that You will comfort and ease their suffering.  We beg for deliverance, and submit that no healing is too hard if it be your will.  We therefore pray that You bless Don and Daisy with Your loving care, renew their strength, and heal what ails them.  We ask this in Your loving name, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Have a good evening, brothers!

Jack Crosby Funeral==Family Thanks

Dear Knights,

The Cosby family would like to extend their thanks to the Knights who were able to take part in Jack's funeral.  It was good to hear new and old stories of our beloved brother Knight, Jack.  I personally want to say thank you to everyone who played a part in the last two days, it would have not come together without the unity of our council.  Again, thank you and thank you to all who have supported the family through your prayers.

After Saturday evening mass, we will have an exemplification for Chuck Adams.   If you can attend mass and stay after to witness Chuck taking his 1st-3rd degree, I am sure he would appreciate your gesture of fraternity.  By the way, this exemplification is not only for Chuck, but also for anyone who is a 1st or 2nd degree Knight.  If you are a 1st or 2nd degree Knight and would like to take part in this exemplification, please notify me ASAP.

Last note, please pray for Richard Holland and his ongoing healing and for Bob Schultheis who is in the hospital.

Once again, thank you brother Knights for your support!

Peace be with you,

Gary

Jack worked as a truck driver for Trans-Con and Yellow Trucking. He was a member of Holy Trinity Catholic Church. Jack had served in the United States Army during the Korean area. He was a charter member of the Knights of Columbus Council 10844, a member of the Marshfield Lions Club, and a long-time volunteer and Treasurer of the Webster County Food Pantry. He was an avid gardener, giving away more vegetables than he kept for himself. Jack was known from Marshfield to Saint Louis for sharing his harvest, delivering produce all summer, but was especially popular in fall as he ran his “turnip route.”

He was preceded in death by his wife, Betty, his parents; and his brother, Robert Cosby.

Jack is survived by four children, Leona Bellingroehr and husband Glenn, Marshfield, Michael Cosby and wife Dawn, Rogersville, Matthew Cosby, Marshfield, and Mark Cosby and wife Jennifer, Springfield; four grandchildren, Alea Hearod and husband Rick, Elkland, Rebecca Jennings, Marshfield, Zachary Cosby, Rogersville and Mindy Grant and husband Payne, Halfway; eight great-grandchildren, Rickie, Robie, Randie, Llogan, Connie, Betty, Lincoln and Georgia; and three great-great-grandchildren, Hudson, Penelopi, and Colter.

Funeral mass will be held at 10:00 a.m., Thursday, May 4, 2023 in Holy Trinity Catholic Church, Marshfield, with interment following at 1:00 p.m. in Missouri Veterans Cemetery, Springfield. A rosary service with visitation to follow will be at 6:00 p.m. Wednesday, May 3, in the chapel of Fraker Funeral Home, Inc.

For those desiring, memorial contributions may be made to Webster County Food Pantry or St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and left in care of Fraker Funeral Home, Inc., P.O. Box 85, Marshfield, MO, 65076.
