Mildred “Millie” Marie Humpal was born on Monday, February 15, 1932 to Charles and Anna (Novotny) Tycz, Sr. in Tyndall, South Dakota. She graduated from Tyndall High School in 1949. On June 26, 1951, Millie was united in marriage to Roy Humpal. They lived in Tyndall for a short time, until they moved to Rapid City. In 1961, they moved back to Tyndall where they bought Roy’s Bar. Together they owned and operated the bar until Roy’s death in 1973 and Millie continued to run it until 1986. She then worked various jobs in Tyndall at: Groveland’s Park, Sokota Batteries, Frank’s Trading Post, and Sportsmen’s Rendezvous. She was a member of the V.F.W. Auxiliary and the Tyndall Chamber of Commerce. Millie was a happy, perky caregiver and a talented cook. A mother to many.
Millie passed away on Thursday, March 5, 2015 at the Good Samaritan Society of Tyndall having attained the age of 83 years and 18 days.
She is survived and remembered by her four children: Joan (Daniel) Johnson of Sioux Falls, Jerome Humpal of Tyndall, Jacque (Michelle) Humpal of Tyndall, and Jeffrey (Faith) Humpal of Tyndall; five grandchildren: Tera Johnson, Jeremy Humpal, Lacie (Nicholas) Flute, Jackie Johnson, and Matthew Johnson; two great-grandchildren: Jaxon Flute and Kinzston Flute; sister Dorothy (Fred) Frank of Tyndall; numerous nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband Roy Humpal, her parents, two brothers: Robert Tycz and Charles Tycz, Jr., and granddaughter Stacey Humpal.
Millie’s family would like to share a special thanks to the staff of the Good Samaritan Society of Tyndall for caring for Millie so well through the years.
