Nelly Oleta, Mother, Grandmother, and Great Grandmother left this life on January 3, 2008 to be with the Lord and loved ones who preceded her. She was born December 27, 1913 to J.W. Donahue and Vie Lura (Dillingham) Donahue near Hugo, OK. She was preceded in death by her parents, one brother, one sister, aunts and uncles and her beloved husband George Miskovsky, Sr., a well known Attorney, Legislator, County Attorney and State Senator. They were married sixty-two wonderful years. She is survived by three sons, George Miskovsky, Jr. (his wife Kristy, Dec.), Gary Miskovsky, and Grover Miskovsky; a daughter Gail Marie and husband Milton Trice; grandchildren, Gary Miskovsky, Jr. and wife Jeanne, Gates Miskovsky, Grayson Trice, Ashley and husband John Stiner, Erin and husband Patrick Gallagher, Gerrod Miskovsky, Andrew Miskovsky, Raegan Miskovsky, George Miskovsky III, Gregory Miskovsky and wife Krissy, Anne Marie and husband Douglas Lemieux, Kristina and husband Yale Van Dyne; 19 Great Grandchildren; several nephews, several cousins, and many loyal, caring friends. Nelly will be remembered for her kindness, bright personality and generous wonderful nature. Nelly was an Episcopalian and a member of All Souls' Episcopal Church in Oklahoma City where she was active in the Guild, Alter Guild and All Souls' Auxiliary work. During the years her children were young she helped in their school work also serving as home room mother, a den mother for Cub Scouts, Brownies, after school activities and sports. She was an avid football, baseball and golf fan. She was a member of Oklahoma City Golf and Country Club Women's Golf Association. George and Nelly created a scholarship fund for Law Students at the University of Oklahoma, one of many contributions made by them to help worthy students. Nelly devoted much of her time and effort working for civic and charity organizations saying, ''I want to be known as having made a contribution to my community while here on earth and not just having occupied the space''. She served as President, Chairperson and Officer for many worthwhile community projects and organizations, volunteering wherever needed. Nelly was a member and supporter of the Oklahoma City Orchestra League; Oklahoma County Bar Auxiliary; Freedom Foundation Valley Forge Oklahoma City Chapter; Ladies Music Club; Oklahoma Hospitality Club; Redbud Women's Club; Women's Club; Lyric Theater Guild; Salvation Army Women's Auxiliary; Reviewers Cilque; Oklahoma Historical Society; Colleagues, Kirkpatrick Museum at Omniplex; LeMidi Reviewers; Zoo Friends; University of Oklahoma Foundation; Oklahoma Heritage Association, Inc.; National Cowboy Hall of Fame and Western Heritage Center; Criterion Book Club; Confrerie dela Chaine des Rotisseurs and International Gourmet Society; two favorite fun clubs, ''The Golden Girls'' and ''Hope-Birthday Club''; Social Clubs; Oklahoma City Golf and Country Club; and Sunrise Golf and Country Club, Rancho Mirage, CA. A special joy for Nelly was traveling with her husband George and on one occasion with the ''Flying Sooners'' around the world. They traveled extensively with music, theater and dance always being an important part of their lives along with their family, beautiful grandchildren, and precious ''greats'' who always came first in all ways and things. God blessed Nelly with a devoted husband, four children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and a long and happy life. Her family, friends and neighbors will cherish their memories and she will be truly missed. May she rest in peace. ''Pray for me as I will thee''. The Family thanks Mrs. Olga Lott and Mrs. Emilita Roberts her devoted and caring ''Angels''.
