To Frank and Katherina were born 13 children: Anna, married to James Proskovec; Emma, married to Joseph Smaus; Bessie, married to Paul Zavodny; Frank, married to Josie Vavra; Hedvicka, married to John Sedlacek; Emanuel; Alois, who died at about 1 year of age; Stanley, married to Rose Slossar; Emil, wed to Kristina Osmera; Helen, married to Henry Sobolik; Anton, born and died same day; Anton, married to Antonia Vanek; and Rudolph. Still living are Bessie, Emil, and Helen in Butler County; Stanley in Saunders County. Frank was a farmer as were his father and grandfather. Frank died in 1933 on his farm about two miles north of the original homeplace. Activities enjoyed by the family were reading, singing, and Grandpa teaching some to play the button accordion. Katherina was a small woman that enjoyed her family, baking and cooking. Some of her recipes are still enjoyed by her family, down to her great, great-grandchildren. One of the favorites is "cabbage pancakes," always served with vegetable soup. Some memories of Frank and Katherina's children are: On Christmas Eve, each of the children put a plate on the dining room table, and Christmas morning they arose to find goodies on their plates, fasting and abstinence the day before Christmas was encouraged so they could see the "Golden Pig", which never seemed to materialize. When Frank built a new barn on the home place, a barn dance was enjoyed by all before the barn was put to use. Grandma Katherina continued to live on the farm with her two sons, Emanuel and Rudy, until about 1947 when they moved to Bruno. Grandma died January 22, 1955. By Rita Polak."
