Funeral for WWII veteran & Honor Flight Austin ambassador

Funeral arrangements have been set for an Honor Flight Austin ambassador who died last week.

Services for 93-year-old Norman Kosarek will be held at the Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church in Poth, Texas on Friday, March 8. He will be buried at the Blessed Sacrament Cemetery after the service.

Kosarek was one of the Central Texas WWII veterans who took part in the inaugural trip to Washington DC by Honor Flight Austin.

The photos attached to this story are from the DC trip and the other photo is when Kosarek participated in the Round Rock Frontier Days Parade on the FOX7 Austin float.

Instead of flowers the family is asking that donations be made to Honor Flight Austin or a similar organization in Kosarek's name.
