We have some great memories enjoying the Czech Republic with Vlasta in 2001 before we got married. We all wanted to rest but she was full of energy! Also she helped teach jenny in San Fran how to make real dumplings to keep the tradition alive. Our thoughts are with you all she will be missed.

Auntie Vlasta was without a doubt one of my favorite aunts. She was always cheerful and actually seemed to enjoy us kids when we all got together - no matter how much of a hard time we gave her. We will miss her.
