Dear Tetka Jovanka, Rade, Judy and family, please accept my sincere and deep condolences on the passing of your loving husband and dad Cika Dusan. I have such warm memories of your dad throughout my childhood. So kind and warm. Always joking around, I think the "hot dog' joke lasted about 30 years or so. I remember him as one of the proudest dads I ever met. Judy and Rade, he was so proud of everything you accomplished! But Tetka Jovanka, he adored you, always. Glad to have known him. My heart goes out to you all at this difficult time of loss. Primite moje iskresno saucesce, i Cika Dusan, vjecna pamijat. With love, Tanja
Tetka Jovanka, Judy, Rade and family, please accept my most sincere and heartfelt condolences on the passing of Cika Dušan. I have such fond memories of him and his calm and kind demeanor.

So much of him lives on in all of you. May God bless his soul and may he rest in eternal peace. Much love, Andjie

May the many happy memories you have of your time together carry you through the difficult times. - Jeff, Melanie and Bridget
Dear Jovanka and Family Our thoughts and prayers are with all off you in this difficult time. We are deeply sorry for your loss. God bless him.
Jovanka, Judy, and Peter, my thought are with you, as they have been many times over the last two years since we first met on the Stroke Unit. Our conversations always brightened my day, and watching Peter with his Jedo was inspirational. Dan was a man blessed with a fighting spirit and a twinkle in his eye. I hope your many incredible memories will bring you comfort during these difficult days.
We are deeply sorry to hear about the death of your father. It is difficult to lose a parent because you lose a part of yourself in the stories and memories they had of you that they told in their own unique way. From all the heart felt tributes, it sounds like your father was a great man; great because a person is judged by the love, help and kindness they showed to others while they were here to make the world a nicer place. "Carve your names on hearts, not tombstones. A legacy is etched into the minds of others and the stories they share with you." - Shannon Alder - As a father, uncle and grandfather, you can see that he was much loved. We will keep your family in our prayers and know that he will always be with you.
Dear Mrs. Pasic, Judy and family, I was saddened to read of your loss. Your father was always a kind and generous man who often reminded me of a gentle giant. He was a great father and grandfather and I'm sure the wonderful memories you've shared will help you heal in the difficult days ahead. May his memory be eternal. Roula, Jim and Christina Koumoutsidis

ISKRENO SAUCESCE FAMILIJI POKOJNIKU NEKA BOG PODARI RAJSKO NASELJE AMIN BOZE MILOJE I BRANKA SA FAMILIJOM
Dear Kumovi, Although our world has now been diminished by the loss of my beloved Godfather, let us be grateful that our lives have been so enriched all these many years by his loving presence. I am so proud of my Kum - he was a dignified man of great integrity, very much loved and respected by all. Moj dragi Kum, hvala Ti mnogo za sve Tvoju dobrotu i pametne reci. Nek Te Bog pozlati! Pocivaj u miru, Kum. Mnogo Te voli i postuje - Tvoja Kuma.
It is sad news to hear of Mr. Pasic's passing. As a friend of Rod's growing up, Mr. Pasic was one my favorite friend Dads. As I was a bona fide skinny runt kid and Mr. Pasic was this massive mountain of a man, he was a superhero in my eyes. And yet, he was so gentle and really loved to laugh. I'll also never forget his booming voice at the hockey rink "Shoot Rade, Shoot!!". Fond memories of Mr. Pasic bring a smile to my face.
Dear Jovanka, Judy, Rod, Danielle and Peter, we are so saddened to hear about Dušan's passing. Our deepest condolences goes out to you and your family. Dušan was a great man, kind, loving and caring, and never failing to make you smile. He will be greatly missed. May His Soul Rest in Eternal Peace.
