Wiletta Bocksnick

Wiletta Ellene Bocksnick, 66, passed away on July 10 ^th , 2020 at her home in Charlo after a long battle with cancer surrounded by family. She was born in Ronan, MT February 10 ^th , 1954 to Elmer and Christeva Daugherty.

Wiletta was raised on a dairy west of Charlo, that was the beginning of her love of animals. She attended school at Charlo and graduated in 1972. Later that summer, on August 19 ^th , she married Neal Bocksnick.

Wiletta and Neal resided in Charlo where she worked at the Charlo Grocery until she had her first child Katreena, in 1981.

She later went on to work for Moody’s Market (Harvest Foods). Then, in 1985, she had her second child Jeanna and started her own daycare.  A few years later, she returned to Moody’s where she remained as a scanning coordinator until she retired in 2016.

Wiletta was blessed with three grandchildren, whom she adored and loved with all her heart. Wiletta’s kind heart graced many people’s lives and her table was always open to all.  She never turned away a stray cat, and at one point she cared and cherished 12.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Elmer and Christeva, and her sister Dallas Novak (Jim).

Wiletta is survived by her husband Neal, her daughter Katreena Kluck (Nate), grandsons Karter and Kellen, daughter Jeanna Bocksnick (Josh Smith) granddaughter Brooklyn; brother, Dan Daugherty (Della), sisters, Dianne Lienemann (Bob), Marcia Kelley, Wilma Large, Judy Piper, Corrine Vaux (Carl) and many nieces and nephews.
