ANTONIA 'TONCKA" 'TONI" URANKAR (nee Gosar) age 100, beloved wife of the late Frank; loving mother of Ann Marie Luzar (husband Ernest, deceased), Joe (wife Sue), Toni Robinette (husband James) and the late Frank (wife Deborah); devoted grandmother Ernest Luzar IV (Jennifer Perry), Angela Luzar (deceased), Alex Urankar (wife Elizabeth), Greg Urankar (wife Jen), James Robinette Jr (wife Melissa), Katie Nutter (husband Matt), Kristy Rolf (husband Randy), Brian Mannello and great-grandmother of 18; cherished daughter of the late Lojze and Anna (nee Oven) Gosar, dearest sister of the late Mary Vrhovnik, Lojze Gosar and Ivanka Gosar; dear aunt and great-aunt of many.

Antonia was born on January 16, 1926, in Dobrova pri Ljubljani, Slovenia and came to the United States in 1948. Though she worked as a circuit board inspector at Allen Bradley for a while, she truly relished her role as a dedicated homemaker to Frank and their four children. She found joy in cooking and baking. She also loved to travel to Florida and back home to Slovenia. Her hobbies were gardening, knitting, crocheting, singing, dancing and playing bocce ball. She was a member of St. Mary's Church, St. Mary's Altar Society, Catholic Mission Aid and Slovenska Prisatava and Pensioners Club.

She was a hard-working, strong willed, friendly and social person with a great sense of humor. Her devotion to her family and faith defined who she was and will stand as her legacy to all who knew her.
