    Obituary:

    SAN ANGELO - Evelyn Emily Drgac was born Nov. 1, 1916, in Caldwell. She was the eldest daughter of Walter and Annie Drgac. She died April 7, 1999, in San Angelo.

    She attended schools in Caldwell, moving to San Angelo in 1936 along with her family. After the death of her mother and brother, and serious illness of her father, Evelyn, along with her older brothers and sisters, assumed the responsibility of helping raise the younger members of the family. Evelyn's contribution was to stay home and do the cooking and household chores. To help with financial needs, Evelyn also raised poultry.

    She had an early interest in music and her church activities, serving for many years as organist and pianist for the Wall Brethren Church. She was a faithful member and worker in her church until declining health prevented her from participating. She attended Hus School in the winter of 1939. She was also a member of R.V.O.S., S.P.J.S.T., and Mutual Aid.

    She had a love for flowers and gardening. She loved children and provided childcare in her home for many years.

    Funeral services will be at 11 a.m. Saturday, April 10, 1999, at Johnson's Funeral Home with the Rev. Tommy Tallas, pastor of the Wall Brethren Church officiating. Interment will be at Lawnhaven Memorial Gardens.

    She was preceded in death by her parents, three brothers, Marvin, W.C. and Albert, one sister, Viola Krupala, and one nephew; and one great-nephew.

    Survivors include two sisters, Dorothy Kokes and husband, Louis, and Clarice Drgac, all of San Angelo; and two brothers, Hubert and wife, Noemi Drgac, of San Angelo and J.D. and wife, Loretta Drgac, of Odessa; one brother-in-law, Edwin Krupala of San Angelo; seven nephews and three nieces; one aunt, Lottie Drgac of Caldwell; and a host of cousins, great-nephews, great-nieces and a great-great-niece.
