Dorothy Dacier

Dorothy “Dot” Mrazek Dacier was born July 4, 1932, as a twin, to John and Mary Mrazek and went home to be with her Mom and Dad and other family members on November 2, 2018. She is preceded in death by her parents, John and Mary Simcik; brothers, Emil, Franklin and Daniel Mrazek; sisters, Johnniemae Russell, Sybile Bade, Bernice Marshall and her twin sister, Doris Marie Carl. She was a longtime resident of Driscoll, Texas. She graduated from Robstown High School in 1952 and spent most of her adult years working alongside her sister, Sybile, at the Kountry Kitchen. She will be remembered by her beautiful blue eyes and quiet demeanor, but you did not want to rile her up, because she would let you know. She was a faithful member of the First Baptist Church. She really enjoyed being a part of the Driscoll Senior Center, working with her beads, learning how to play Chalupa and just being with her friends. She was crowned Queen during her time there. She was always ready for an adventure and had her purse on standby just in case. Dot was a proud Czech descendent of one of the first families to settle in Nueces County. Her family developed the Mrazek Grubbing Plow which carved a rich farming kingdom out of the wild brushland along the Texas Gulf Coast. She was a loving Mom and exhibited this by raising her children on her own. She is survived by her children, Sharon (Fred) Barton, Raymond Dacier, Shirley (David) Christiansen and Sandra Dacier. She is also blessed with five grandchildren, Jamie Knaeble (Sharon’s), Lindsay (Jason) Roe (Shirley’s), Logan (Mollie) Christiansen (Shirley’s), Shane (Iris) Hornsby (Sandra’s), Brandon Hornsby (Sandra’s) and loved her babies and was overjoyed to have twelve great grandchildren, Jordan, Kenny and Sofia (Jamie’s), Nathaniel, Naomi, Asa and Camille (Lindsay’s) Annabelle and soon-to-be Audrey (Logan’s), Satori, Brody, Paisley and Dax (Shane’s). Family was so very important to her, being one of twelve children. She was excited to gather with her siblings on holidays, birthdays and outings. She leaves behind her brother, J.D. (Kay) Mrazek and three remaining sisters, Marie Clarke, Betty (Tommy) Goodridge and Bobbie Perkins. She will also be missed by her many nieces, nephews and friends. Visitation will be from 6 P.M. until 8 P.M. Thursday, November 8, 2018 at Sawyer-George Funeral Home. Funeral services will be conducted at 2 P.M. Friday, November 9, 2018 at Sawyer-George Funeral Home Chapel. Burial will follow in Robstown Memorial Park.
