Mildred (Vondra) Cervenka 8th grade graduation photo. This is the highest grade that she completed. However, she had a brilant memory. As I remember my gradmother knew the capitol for every state, she spoke and wrote both Cezch and English perfectly. Her culinary skills were above everyone. She could make dumplings so light that she would use a piece of thread to cut them. When she made pastry she would only use butter and cream the butter with a forlk until perfectly lump free. She would never use margarine for baking. If you have any culinary skills or hobbies perhaps it is in the genes.
