Bio

John Roznovsky was born in Penelope, Texas on June 24, 1936. He passed away peacefully at home on July 30, 2021. John grew up in a small tight knit community in Hill County Texas with his 7 brothers and sisters where he spoke Czech at home until he started school. He farmed, picked cotton, and attended Penelope High School. John attended North Texas College and then enlisted in the US Army. He trained in a US Army tank division and later was assigned to a post in Washington D.C. where he rolled out red carpets for dignitaries, marked out parade routes, and was present at the dedication of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. After completing his military service, he settled in the Dallas area but he was often found back home on weekends at the local dance hall. This is where he met his angel on the dance floor and was swept off his feet. John and Angeline were married on October 21, 1961. He raised his children in a faithful Catholic home. He worked at Otis Engineering/Haliburton in Carrollton, Texas and retired after 39 years of loyal service. John was actively involved in the Christian Community of God's Delight where he served as a coordinator for many years. John was a handyman extraordinaire. He loved gardening, woodworking and even discovered an amazing hidden talent for graphite pencil sketching at the age of 80. He also loved photography, taking photos of flowers and the beautiful scenery on his many trips to the Rocky Mountains. His travels also took him to the Czech Republic, Alaska, Australia, Hawaii, Italy, and all over the Continental United States. He even loved to take off on a trip with no destination or plan in mind. In his retirement you would most likely find John in his workshop building furniture, having breakfast at Mc Donald's with friends, or at one of his grandchildren's many events. The family is grateful to have had such a steadfast, dedicated man at the head of our family. He will always be remembered for his witty sense of humor, for his faithfulness to God, and for his generosity in serving others. So many people were inspired by his humble devotion to God and unwavering love of family. John was preceded in death by his parents, daughters Diane and Julie, and daughter-in-law Patty. He is survived by his loving wife Angeline, his children, John, Joyce (Steve), Jerry (Donna), Janet (Jack), and Judy (Burt), 20 grandchildren, and 13 great grandchildren.
