Lura was the daughter of John and Betty (Gunsallus) Kozak and passed away peacefully at her home.

She and Daniel "Boone" Hockens were married November 27, 1966 at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Riceville, Iowa.

Lura was a homemaker and loved spending time with her family. Lura worked at Fox River Mills in Osage, IA and was also a local beautician. She worked at the Pit Stop in Mcintire and was well-known to all as an excellent cook. She enjoyed raising animals (especially chickens), gardening, puzzles, and cheering for the Vikings. Lura always had a few scratch-off lottery tickets on her table and enjoyed going to the casino at any chance she got. She had a knack for canning & preserving and excelled at winemaking. There wasn't much she couldn't do - She was really a jack of all trades! She was so loved and will be very missed.

At the time of her death she was survived by a daughter, two sons, seven grandchildren, two sisters and six brothers.

She was preceded in death by her parents John and Betty (Gunsalus) Kozak, husband Dan, infant daughter Jeanie, her father-in-law and mother- in-law Al and Florence Holmen and her brother Randy.

Visitation was held 4-7 p.m. Sunday, November 14, 2021 at Hindt-Hudek Funeral Home in Riceville, Iowa. Graveside services were held at 11:00 a.m. Monday November 15 at Wayne Cemetery. A celebration of life was held Monday November 15th at 12 noon at the Riceville Community Center.

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be given to Wayne Cemetery or Hospice of Mitchell County.
