Mr. Lazaric you were a kind and generous man and a wonderful neighbour. I am really glad I got the pleasure to meet and know you through the years.. You always had a funny joke or always a kind word. You loved walking up and down home road after dinner and talking to all the neighbours. I will miss you love Mario
