Yarmila Capek (nee Kinst) of St. Charles and formerly of North Riverside,  passed away at her home December 14, 2020 of natural causes at the age of 97.  She was preceded in death by Milton, her husband of nearly 70 years.  She is survived by her son Tom (Lois) Capek, her two grandchildren Erica Capek and Jeffrey (Jennifer) Capek, and her new great-grandson Milo.

A daughter of the Great Depression, it taught her the virtues of hard work, thrift and honesty.  She drove a car most of her adult life, saw her husband go off to war and lived independently until her passing.  Yarmy and Milt loved most their cottage on the Fox River in Novak Park, which continues to be a gathering place for the entire family. It was with pride that she realized that 4 generations of the Capek family have enjoyed the boating, swimming and bonfires at the cottage and hoped the Milo would be the fifth to do so.

Due to the family’s COVID-19 concerns, no visitation or funeral services are being held.  In lieu of flowers, donations may be directed to the Novak Park Community Club, In memory of Yarmila Capek, 6N165 Willow Dr.,  St. Charles, IL  60175.

Condolences

"I was so sorry to hear of Yarmy's passing. I didn't know her very well as one of my neighbors, but, the few interactions I had with her were pleasant. My sincere condolences to her family."
