Libuše Votavová, née Šuhajová, was born June 25, 1932 in Puklice near Jihlava. After completing a local two-class elementary school she began attending the higher elementary school in Brtnice, but the school became closed down in 1942. After the war she studied a school of nursing. Her family was evicted from their farm in the 1950s during the collectivization process. Libuše‘s father was imprisoned for half a year for not being able to meet the required delivery quotas. Libuše Votavová has been working in the hospital in Jihlava for her entire life. The family received the farm back in the restitution process after 1989, but it was left in a devastated state. She passed away in 2021.
