Tvoj trag ne mogu snjegovi pokriti, tvoj osmijeh ne može u vjetru nestati, tebe ne može vrijeme odnjeti... Iskrena sučut obitelji. Počivao u miru Božjem. - Posted by: Marija Radić and family Plut (family) on: Jan 09, 2014

My deepest and most sincere condolences for your loss. Having to endure another loss so soon after Marko, no words can console. Please know that my heart aches alongside of yours. I have had the pleasure of knowing your family for the last 30 years, I only wish I could have spent more time with you along the way. I was so glad that I got to spend time with you all this past summer and see Ile for the last time. Watching him light up and smile when his grandson came in the room was priceless, he loved his family like no other! He was a man I was so proud to be known as a friend of his. His calm gentle spirit and heart of gold will never be forgotten. When he looked into your eyes you could see the love in his heart, he was a gift to all those that were fortunate enough to have known him. - Posted by: Perry Norman (Friend) on: Jan 09, 2014
