Dear Mum, You were the greatest, most caring and generous person of all. We will miss you more than you could imagine. Forever in our hearts, but now in God's care. Počivala u miru Božjem Love always, Boris and Angie xx

Baka, You were the best. You put your children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren on a pedestal. We treasure fond memories with you watching Days of Our Lives and laughing together after school with the egg yolks and sugar you lovingly made us. You always had a funny joke and your warmth and laughter could light up a room. Now resting with God, we miss you so much and we love you eternally. Love, Daniel, Harriet & Victoria xxx

A kind and loving Baka & Pra Baka. You remained faithful to God and lived a humble life. We will miss your laughter and warm hugs and are comforted knowing Heaven has gained an angel. We are so grateful to have had you part of our lives for so long and we will continue to make you proud. Počivala u miru Božjem Krystle, Bruno, Jack & Eva xxxx

Darling Baka Danica, The most beautiful and loving soul, now an angel with the Lord she loved so dearly. Your whole life you were selfless. You loved and nurtured your family and friends, and always wished only the best for those around you. I am so grateful to have you as my grandmother and be such an important presence in my life so long. We are Heartbroken that you are no longer here in person but know that you will always watch over our family. I will never forget your feisty nature, infectious chuckle, bright smile, warm cuddles and the good advice you have given me. You taught me to be kind, forgiving, loving and resilient. I hope I've made you proud - from the baby you cared for as your own, to the woman I am today. I will love you eternally. Until we meet again - your Katarina xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Our dearest mum You were always there for our family, giving us love, kindness and care. We appreciated your enduring commitment to all of us over the years. You showed us the importance of faith, forgiveness and being a good person in life. A true inspiration! Mum you will always be in our hearts and thoughts. We will remember your loving words, ‘Budite Dobri, Ja se molim za vas.’ Mum, thank you for being you. Počivala u miru Božjem Love always Stjepan & Suzan xxx

In loving memory of our dear baka, Although we didn't always speak the same language, your affection, devotion, and unconditional love for us were felt fully nonetheless. We will forever remember and be inspired by your strength, resilience, and spiritedness, with a giggle that would bring a smile to our faces, and one of your signature quips to draw a laugh from our bellies. Baka, we love and will miss you always. Until we meet again, your grandsons Nick & Joseph xoxo

A message to my baka Danica, I can't believe that you are gone. I remember how you used to joke about the time when we would all need to say goodbye to you—that all you ever wanted was for us to živjeti dobro, to be good to each other, to love God, and to trust in His plan. Thank you for all that you have done for me and the rest of our family, whom you loved fiercely. Thank you for warmly welcoming my husband, Dean, into the family, and thank you for being the most caring, generous, and authentic role model for us all. Your wonderful combination of oscillating feistiness, dry humor, and charming sweetness will always be remembered with fondness. I will treasure all the memories of my time with you. I hope with all my heart that you have now made your way into heaven and have reunited with those you dearly missed. I cannot think of anyone who deserves paradise more. Dean and I will miss you. Počivaj u miru na Božjoj strani, baka. xoxo
