Funeral services for Pete Edward Crnkovic, 91, will be held on Saturday, October 15, 2022 at 10:00 a.m. at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church in Shreveport, Louisiana. Burial will follow at St. Ann's Cemetery in Stonewall, Louisiana. A visitation will be held Friday, October 14, 2022 from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. with a Rosary at 6:15 p.m. in the Chapel of Rose-Neath Funeral Home, 2500 Southside Drive, Shreveport, Louisiana. Officiating the service will be Father Patrick Madden. Officiating the interment will be Father Richard Morsworthy at 3:00 p.m. at St. Ann's Cemetery in Stonewall, Louisiana.

Pete was born on March 11, 1931 to Ed Slavko Crnkovic and Frazine Ebarb Crnkovic in Zwolle, Louisiana and passed away on Tuesday, October 11, 2022 in Shreveport.

Pete graduated from Zwolle High School. He was married to Irene Cain Crnkovic for 50+ years and later married to Nell Alford Crnkovic. Pete served in the Air Force and was a Korean War Veteran. He worked as a Shreveport trolley driver. He was employed at the TJ Moss Crosstie Company and retired from the Finance Department at the United States Postal Service in Shreveport. Pete loved to fish, loved the Dallas Cowboys, the New Orleans Saints and the LSU Tigers. He was a great caregiver, had many friends (and no enemies that anyone could think of) and loved his brothers and sisters. Anytime the Crnkovic clan gathered in Zwolle for a family reunion, lots of childhood memories were re-lived and laughter could be heard all the way to Toledo Bend. Pete was gifted with the Crnkovic sense of humor, a quick wit and never missed an opportunity to share a joke. He loved growing a summer garden, tending to his muscadine vines which he turned into jelly, and he could make a mean pan of cornbread.

Pete is preceded in death by his parents; first wife, Irene Cain Crnkovic; daughter, Laura Kaye Crnkovic Fontenot; second wife, Nell Alford Crnkovic; brothers, Steve Crnkovic, Johnny Crnkovic, Joseph Crnkovic, Frank Crnkovic; and sister, Helen Crnkovic Byers. Left to cherish his memory are his children, Deborah Crnkovic of Frierson, LA, Paul Crnkovic of Chateaugay, NY, Jeff Crnkovic and wife, Jeannie of Shreveport, LA, and Brian Crnkovic of Shreveport, LA; grandchildren, Gareth Ricketts, Brett Ricketts, Andrew Fontenot and Hannah Crnkovic; brothers, Wilburn "Mickey" Crnkovic and Donald Crnkovic; sisters, Josephine Crnkovic Jones and Lois Crnkovic Foltz.

Honoring Pete as pallbearers will be Gareth Ricketts, Brett Ricketts, Darren Hughes, Jack Hanson, Don Jones, Mike Jones, Rob Medlin and Kenny Grigsby. Serving as honorary pallbearer will be Duane Crnkovic.

Funeral services for Mr. Preston Crnkovic will be held at 10 a.m. Wednesday, February 10, 2010 at the Chapel of Cox Funeral Home of Bastrop with the Rev. Phillip McCready officiating. Interment with military honors will follow at Memorial Park Cemetery. The family will receive friends from 6-8 p.m. Tuesday, February 9 at the funeral home.

Preston Crnkovic was born May 14, 1931 in West Carroll Parish to the union of the late Angel Crnkovic and Fannie Gunter Crnkovic. He died Sunday, February 7, 2010 surrounded by his family at his home in Bastrop.

Preston was a unique person in many ways, very practical, with a dry sense of humor. God had blessed him with many talents along with the knowledge and skillfulness to use them during his lifetime. He was talented in farming, carpentry, welding, electrical, and plumbing. He was mechanically inclined to fix many things. He always tried to be organized before starting a project. His motto was "Count the cost before you start and do it right to start with. Make it low maintenance."

Some friends would call him a "perfectionist" but he was always neat in his job performance. A loyal company man, Preston retired from Louisiana Gas with over 30 years of service. He excelled in his job and was promoted to construction superintendent for the North East district. He believed in treating his co-workers with dignity and respect.

Preston was also an Army veteran of the Korean Conflict. He was a paratrooper with the 101st Airborne Division stationed at Fort Campbell, Ky. During his military service he made over 20 successful jumps.

He loved his family, especially his wife of nearly 59 years, Fay and his two special granddaughters, Hannah Mardis and Amelia Crnkovic. They were the spice of his life and an enjoyment on their summer vacations together. He was an avid fisherman and he hosted many a good fish fry for family and friends. He also provided many others with an abundance of white perch. Preston was always eager and willing to help his neighbors and friends. He was a good provider for his family and he will be missed by many.

Mr. Crnkovic was preceded in death by his parents; three brothers, Bill, Keith, and Robert Crnkovic; and a sister, Doris Crnkovic.

Preston is survived by his wife of 59 years, Fay Trichell Crnkovic of Bastrop; three children, Gary Crnkovic of Bastrop, Vicki Crnkovic Mardis and her husband Ted of Tulsa, Okla., Scott Crnkovic and his wife Kim of Bastrop; two granddaughters, Hannah Mardis of Baton Rouge and Amelia Crnkovic of Bastrop; step-grandson, Jonathan Moreland of Bastrop; sister, Jane Acreman of Oak Grove; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Serving as pallbearers will be Ted Mardis, Randy Gunter, Robert Craft, Jerry Crnkovic, Quenton Burchfield, and George Book. Honorary pallbearers are Jerry Freeland and Royal Kempier.
