Palensky, Charles E. 'Charlie'
8 Mar 1931 - 24 Dec 2018
Charles E. Palensky “Charlie” was born on the family farm outside of
Prague, Nebraska, to Charles L. Palensky and Anna P. (Svoboda) on March
8, 1931. He enjoyed his childhood with 2 brothers and his sister,
Geraldine. He graduated from Prague High School and later began working
as a mechanic/gas station attendant in Schuyler. He met his wife of 66
years, Susan on a blind date. They waltzed into each other’s hearts and
were engaged on May 5, 1952. Charlie and Susan were married shortly
after on November 15th of the same year. From their loving relationship
they had 2 children, Charles Jr. and Becky (Mount). As an employee of
Western Electric for over 30 years, Charlie provided a wonderful home
for his wife and family. After raising their children, Charlie and Susan
provided loving care for all five of their grandchildren. Charlie had a
heart of gold, and could always be found in the bleachers cheering on
his grandchildren at all their sporting events, and even dance recitals.
The family would like to thank the exceptional staff at the Josie Harper
Hospice House and CHI Hospice for making Dad’s final days comfortable
and peaceful.
