Born in the same year, my mother and Fanika became friends in later years of their lives. Two daughters and two mothers became a friendly group, going to the concerts and restaurants, or just talking and laughing together.
Good by dear Fanika, you will be missed

Dear friends, we are so sorry for your loss.
Mrs. Fanika Lucic was a great lady. She was brave, strong, smart, wise and kind. Full of life and joy. She was loved and respected and we will miss her very much.
Brankica and Vuk Kokotovic
We are deeply sorry for your loss. Wishing you peace and comfort during this hard time.
Napustila nas je moja imenjakinja, nasa Baka Fanika… Dozivela je duboku starost, okruzena ljudima koje voli. Bila je samostalna i svoja ceo zivot, volela je da se druzi, i radi ono sto zeli. Svakog leta je punila baterije u Budvi, i vracala se puna utisaka. Cesto pomislim na nju ovih dana… Secam se njenih dolazaka u Loblaws, i prica koje mi je pricala o svom zivotu. Puno ce mi nedostajati…
Sa tugom se oprastamo se od divne, plemenite Fanike. Sa njenom velikom ljubavi i zrtvovanjem odgojila je cerku i sina koji su sa njihovim porodicama uvek bili njena velika podrska. Prilagodila se i u novi kanadski zivot. Puna energije, sa interesovanjem i uvek sa osmehom istrazivala je grad, Sinagogu, stigla do Njujorka. Cerka Branka je napisala divnu knjigu "Fanika" o njenom zivotu u Sarajevu i kasnije u Kanadi. Odlazak drage Fanike je velika zalost za njenu porodicu a i za nas njene prijatelje ali nam ostaje nezaboravno secanje .
It is with much sadness that we are saying goodbye to the wonderful and amazing Fanika. With her never-ending love and sacrifice, she raised a proud son and a daughter who themselves raised their own families that serve as a testament to Fanika's legacy. She acclimated to her new Canadian life, was always full of energy, and exuded a genuine interest and passion in the city and the Synagogue. Her daughter Branka wrote a beautiful book titled "Fanika" about her life in Sarajevo and later in Canada. Fanika's passing is a profound loss for her family and for us, her friends, but we are all left with unforgettable and inspiring memories of her amazing life that we will cherish for ever.
