Uncle Pete was born in New Tabor, TX.
His ­parents were some of the first settlers of the area. He attended school until 7th grade and then worked on the family farm.
Drgac was proud of his Czech heritage and spoke his native language fluently. He married in 1905 and ran a small grocery store and bakery. The couple had no ­children of their own but Drgac received the nickname "Uncle Pete" from his nieces and nephews. After retiring he began gardening and painting. Drgac’s work is featured in Ricco-Maresca's Self-Taught Artists Book and Lynne Adele's Spirited Journeys.
