Mildred (Millie) Dukart, age 85,

She passed away surrounded by her children and grandchildren.
Millie was born in Dickinson, North Dakota to Joseph and Christina Kostelecky on January 2, 1925. She married Jack Dukart in Dickinson on October 26, 1950 and shortly after their marriage moved to Billings to start their family. They spent 39 happy years together until Jack's death in 1989.
She is survived by five children; Terrence (JoAnn) Dukart,
Sandy Johnson, Keith (J erilyn) Dukart, Scott (Laurie)
Dukart all of Billings, Debbie (Mel) Sticka of Nampa, Idaho.

(Angie) Kostelecky of Dickinson and many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband Jack; three
brothers Charles, George and Albert Kostelecky and two
sisters, Martha Dunnigan and Elsie Haag.
Millie lived a full life surrounded by her family and many
friends. She loved baseball and never missed one of her
children's or grandchildren's games. She enjoyed ceramics,
baking, candy making, gardening, traveling and spending time
with her family and friends. Millie was a waitress for 40
years, which she thoroughly enjoyed. We will miss her
wonderful sense of humor.
