Lillian was born October 27, 1929 in Dunn County, North Dakota, the daughter of Steve and Agnes (Urbanec) Kostelecky. Growing up she attended country school and New Hradec School through the eighth grade. She then went to and graduated from Model High. On June 14, 1949, Lillian was united in marriage to Jerry E. Kostelecky at New Hradec. To this union, Jeri Ann, Neil, Gregg, Mike and Mark were born. Together they raised their family on a farm in Dunn County. They moved into Dickinson in 1959, making it their home ever since. Lillian and Jerry were blessed with 63 years of a lifetime together. Lillian began her banking career at Liberty National Bank and continued on at American Bank Center, where she spent the next 30+ years, retiring in 1992. The family enjoyed gatherings, either at their home or at the lake cabin. Lillian loved to bake and she was an avid bowler and card player. Lillian was a member of Queen of Peace Catholic Church, the Sts. Peter & Paul Rosary Society of New Hradec and a member of the Catholic War Veteran’s Auxiliary. She will be remembered as her family’s prayer warrior.
