Magdalen Jarzombek Friesenhahn

December 8, 1938 — September 9, 2023

Falls City, Texas

Magdalen (Maggie) Friesenhahn, age 84, of Falls City, TX passed away peacefully on September 9, 2023, in Live Oak, TX. Maggie was born December 8, 1938, in San Antonio. She was born to her parents Louis and Mary Jarzombek of Falls City and was proceeded in death by her sister Eleanor Jarzombek.

She graduated from Falls City High School and after graduation worked for Alamo National Bank for several years. She spent much of her work life in service to the Lord and the children and faculty of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic School in Selma, TX.

August Friesenhahn Jr. of Selma, TX and Maggie met at the Hermann Sons Hall in San Antonio. On September 7, 1963, she married August in a beautiful ceremony at Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary Catholic Church in Cestohowa, TX.

She is survived by her loving husband of 60 years, August and was a caring parent to 3 children, Roman (Kristin) Friesenhahn of Schertz, Debbie Wehman of Schertz and Ronnie Friesenhahn (Suzanne) of Falls City. She is also survived by grandchildren, Justin (Corie) Wehman of Schertz, Matthew (Meghan) Wehman of Schertz and great grandchildren, Clara and Beth Wehman of Schertz. She also has step grandchildren Victoria (Nowlin) Rees of Falls City, Trevor Moczygemba of Yorktown, and Alison Klein (Chance Leal) of Floresville. She is also survived by step great grandchildren, Dryden and Calvin Rees, Blaze Moczygemba and Oliver Klein. She was loved and adored by many nieces and nephews as well from the Friesenhahn side of the family.

Maggie was a devote Catholic and was a life-time member of St. Ann’s Christian Mother’s Society at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church and spent many hours in devotion with our Lord. Her hobbies included canning and cooking, gardening, baking, sewing, waltz dancing and spending time with the entire family at the farm in Falls City.

Perhaps most importantly to remember about Maggie was that she was a caring and loving lady, the backbone of the Friesenhahn family and a woman of strong faith and a wonderful friend to many.
