Marie Pixová, née Kalvasová, was born on 4 April 1947 in Budíškovice to Božena and František Kalvas. In 1953 they were forcibly evicted to the village of Loucká near Mšené-lázně as part of Action K („kulak“). However, Marie Pixová attended first class in her native village of Budíškovice, where she temporarily lived with her grandmother. She entered the second class in the village near Loucká and later attended the primary school in Mšené-lázně. In the ninth school, at the beginning of the 1960s, she moved to Hradec Králové to live with her uncle, where she started school and hoped to go to secondary school. However, this plan failed. So she took a job at the Hradec Králové brewery and in 1963 gave up her dreams of studying. She returned to her family, who had in the meantime moved to Smečno. In Slaný, in 1966, she trained as a shop-assistant and started working in the grocery store. In 1967 she married Jiří Pixa and a year later their son Jiří was born. After the Velvet Revolution in 1989, her family asked for the return of the farm in Budíškovice, but they were only partially successful because they only got half of the farm, the other half was owned by another owner. Later she bought this part of the house from him and renovated the whole farm. However, she eventually sold the house in 2008 and stayed in Smečno, where she was living in 2024.
