Carol Koska

August 28, 2024 by Hometown News

Carol Ann Koska, 78, passed away unexpectedly at her home on August 2, 2024. Carol was the daughter of Harry and Katherine (Pfeffer) Westerberg of Long Prairie, MN. She was born and raised in Long Prairie. After graduation she married Victor (Bud) Koska in 1964. They made their home in Long Prairie where they raised 2 daughters, Bev and Pam.
Carol worked hard throughout her life at a variety of jobs. Her employers include Minnesota Distillers, Fingerhut, Larson Boats, Riverside Liquor and finally Harts Press/Banta from which she retired. Being a talented seamstress, she also took on upholstery and sewing jobs.
Through the years Carol made many friends. Her wide range of talents made her the “go to” person for friends and family. She could build almost anything, figure out how to do anything. She would always either have or find the answer. Carol enjoyed many things. Most often of late, if she wasn’t home making dog food for her very spoiled canine babies you might be able to find her out with her very special friend Phil Mrozek. They might be out playing Bingo, enjoying a play, a meal, exploring new places together, or possibly dancing the night away, with a smile on her face and happiness in her heart, she was living her best life.
Carol leaves behind her 2 daughters Bev (Jeff) Leyk, Pam Koska (Fiancé Steve Hansen); 2 granddaughters Taylor and Torri Leyk; and great-grandson Jameson Riggs; siblings Linda (Joe) Bleess, Cindy (Stan) Mensen, Gary (Sandy) Westerberg; and some very special friends, Phil Mrozek, Yancy Rivas, Sandy French and many more.
She was preceded in death by her Husband Victor “Bud” Koska; parents Harry and Katherine Westerberg; and sister LaVonne (Kitty) Foster.
She will be in our hearts forever. Gone but not forgotten, I feel you by my side, No this is not goodbye, I will see you again. Fly high Mom.
