Bio

EMIL AND GARNET POKORNY My husband, Emil Pokorny, and I, Garnet Pokorny, will celebrate our 30th Anniversary on Nov. 14, 1983. Emil was the youngest son of Henry Sr. and Louise (Dostal) Pokorny. His mother died when he was two and a half years old. He has three brothers and four sisters. Emil's father was born in Saunders County and his mother was born in Trebomyslicech, Czechoslovakia and came to the U.S.A. as a young girl. I was the youngest child of Mr. and Mrs. James S. Svoboda of Prague. I have two brothers and one sister. My parents will observe their 60th Anniversary on May 1, 1983. They were both born in Saunders County. Emil and I were married in the old St. John's Catholic Church in Prague. He served two years in the army, 1½ years in Korea, 1951-1953. Our son, Keith, who also served three years in the Army, 1½ years of this time in Okinawa, is now married to Rose Ann Johnson of Swedeburg. They have a boy, Curtis, almost three years old and a girl, Jean Marie, almost three months. Darlene, our daughter, married Howard L. Sheets and lives in Fremont. They have a daughter, Danielle, who will be nine years old in July, 1983. On Feb. 26, 1983, Emil and I will live on this place eight years. We lived by Wahoo for twenty-two years and dairied and farmed until we bought the present place we live on. Emil now works for the bridge crew of Saunders County, also farms a little on the side, and we raise a few cattle. We like living on our little farm and hope to enjoy many years here.
