Angeline was a homemaker who enjoyed gardening and caring for her family and pets. Later in life she enjoyed traveling with her children and grandchildren. She especially cherished trips to Europe where, while visiting ancestral homes, she met descendants of her ancestors that stayed in the old country. Angeline and Charlie were devout Catholics who devoted many hours in service to the church community of St. Josephs in Bellmead, and who sacrificed much to provide a parochial education for their children at St. Marys in West and at Reicher Catholic High School in Waco. She was a member of the Catholic Daughters of the Americas Chapter 829, St. Josephs Altar Society, Czech Heritage Society of Texas and KJZT Society.
