Hi Mary/Ivan,
It is very sad to hear the loss of your father. I remember I met him couple of times when I dropped by your house, he was smiling with shy face, a gentle and decent senior.

May God bless your family to walk through this critical moment.
God is being with him and he is in peace now.

Take care and you are in my prayer.

The shared family memories and the indelible impressions of moments of caring .. affection...and the fun times can be best anchored firmly when the actual transition to the heavenly abode takes place, although they are the moments of mixed emotions.

While expressing our deepest condolences to the bereaved closely knit family on the passing away of a beloved soul, to the bereaved family we pray for the strength and fortitude to reconcile the loss and to rejoice in the consolation that in fond memories he will live forever.

Our deepest Sympathy to the entire family for your loss. I remember him walking the dogs. He was kind and gentleman, did not speak a word of English but we communicated with sign language. Mira I know how close you and your family were with your dad and I can only imagine your pain.
He will always be with you and be watching over you all.
Our prayers and thought will be with you during your hard time.

From
The Entire Flower Family.

This is a beautiful poem written by our very good friend -Stjepan Sabljaric in memory of my father (The Poem is in Croatian)
U SPOMEN TOMISLAVU JURKOVIĆU

Kanade plodna Mississaugo,
dome ponosnih Hrvata,
evo ode u mir vječni,
Tomislav, naš brižni tata.

Tamo će ga žena Kaja,
naša mati dočekati
i pred njega svojom dušom
pobožna i vjerna stati.

Tako će se dvije duše
opet skupa sjediniti,
a ovdje će list javora
njihov grobak da im kiti.

U starome rodnom kraju
iz mladosti stoji slika
i Baljevac selo gubi
svojeg davnog stanovnika.

Oj sudbino, sve potiho
zoveš u Raj naše ljude,
daleko od starog kraja,
daleko od rodne grude.

Primi tata zadnje zbogom
od Mire i Miroslava,
Ivice i unučadi,
rodbine i prijatelja,
neka ti je vječna slava!

Sada si na Božjem putu,
daleko sa anđelima,
vrati nam se, posjeti nas,
dok sanjamo u snovima.

Ostale su uspomene,
koje žive, koje traju,
Tomislava Jurkovića
čeka mir u vječnom Raju!
