Words cannot express how sorry I am at the loss of such a beloved person. Branka and Marko .. my thoughts are with you at this difficult time. Kuma, you will be missed more than you will ever know. You treated each one of us Egredzija children as we were one of your own. Those special memories of you will always bring a smile. You always meant so very much to all of us and always will. You will always forever be in our hearts. We love you so very much Kuma. I will always cherish you.

Dear Branka
I have watched and admired your steadfast, unwavering and loving care of your Mom over these past few years of extended need. You were certainly an angel watching out for her. I have enjoyed hearing the stories about your Mom, from the old days and more recently about her time at Cawthra Gardens, including her popularity with all around her – Those are very lovely memories to cherish and I appreciate that you shared - so although we never met, I feel, through you, I knew her just a bit. I wish you and your brother Mark, peace and strength as you deal with the difficult days and months ahead. AML
