In memory of

Stevan Klipina

August 11, 1933 - September 6, 2020

Stevan Klipina

Husband, father, Djedo and great-grandfather.

Born in Rajic, Yugoslavia on August 11, 1933 and died peacefully on September 6, 2020, surrounded by his loved ones.

Stevan is survived by his beloved wife of 63 years, Mileva, daughter Annie (Mike) Sukunda & son Mike (Celeste) Klipina.

Djedo was a beloved grandfather to Jennifer (James) Pickup, Mike (Caitlin) Sukunda, Stephanie (Chad) Seymour, Katarina (Daniel) Roccasalvo, Stevan, Milan, Kristina & Nicholas Klipina and adored great-grandfather to Colton, Callie, Hannah, Blake and Auston.

He came to Cochrane, Ontario in 1957, finally settling in Toronto where he and Mileva created a home for everyone they loved. This special place would become the foundation for many milestones and memories that continue to touch the hearts and minds of their family. He will also be remembered for helping many relatives make their start in Canada.

A very selfless and humble man, he was most proud of his family’s successes and accomplishments. He was a proud Carpenter with Local 27 for more than 50 years.

His family meant everything to him. We will love you forever, Dad, Djedo. Vjecnaja pamjat!

In light of COVID restrictions, a private service will take place on Thursday September 10, 2020 at York Cemetery.
