David and Clara Dybala

David and Clara Dybala

David and Clara have been married since June 1971, not long after they met at a wedding dance themselves. They grew up in the small Czech community of Fairchild southwest of Houston. David joined the Knights in June 1978 and took his major degrees a few months later. He’s an engineering graduate of Texas A&M and was the Grand Knight of his council in Waco before the Dybalas came this far north. He’s a long-time member of the 9:30 Mass choir. David is active with Knight Hands and is a member of our degree team. He recently came upon a Celtic prayer called “Anam Cara” that has been adopted as part of the team’s exemplification ceremony. They have two grown children and four grandchildren. Now both retired (David for the second time), the Dybalas’ travels included the parish group that went to Italy last year.
