Franjo “Frank” I am so sorry I never made it there to meet you, now its too late. It was just a week ago, while Tommy was visiting I spoke to you on the phone, you always made me smile you were such a sweetheart…Tommy always said “hes such a great man, just wait until you meet him, you will love him, hes always smiling”…and now I will never get to see that for myself…… You should be proud of the family you raised, they all such amazing strong wonderful people….R.I.P
Tomislav, Hrvatin,Draga : You have my sincere condolences on the loss of your father. Theres not a hour in my day that time goes by and I am not thinking or praying for your family. May you take comfort in knowing another angel is watching over you.
A little words of encouragement….
“What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget.”
Love Danielle

We will miss Franjo’s ready smile, his wonderful sense of humour and, most of all, his strength of spirit. He was as proud of you as he was of his children.
