Gordana (nee Tomic) passed away in Burlington, Ont, after a brief illness. Beloved mother of Maria (Graham Gansky) and Belinda. Predeceased by her husband George Babbage and sister Julka Arsenic.

Born in Ruma, Yugoslavia, on Nov. 5, 1935, Gordana became a Canadian citizen in 1965. She settled in Toronto with her mother Milka Tomic, and moved to Ottawa after marrying George in 1973, where they raised a family.

Her courage, love, compassion and sense of adventure were hallmarks of her extraordinary life. She was known for her generosity and kindness to newcomers and those most in need. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her, including her extended family, Kata Kitaljevich and her brother Duka, his wife Joan and their children Evan and Keira, Eleonora Radovich and the Gacek family.

Volecemo te uvek.
