In memory of

Marijana Vidic

January 5, 1947 -  February 8, 2020

Together let's celebrate the life of Marijana Vidic, amazing "baka", grandmother, to Natasha, Bianca, and Siena, loving wife to Antun, caring sister to Slavka and daughter to Kata, and mom to everyone that knew her, but especially to Anita, Daniel, Andrea, and Mark.

"Where do you go when you leave us at night?" a child once questioned the sun. "You fill up our lives with warmness and light... but then when you go, we'll have none!"

"I'm still shining bright, but in a new place," the sun kindly answered and smiled. "But though you don't see me, I promise you this... I'm still all around you, my child. I'm the radiant glow that colours the sky long after I've slipped out of view. I'm the warmth in the earth and the life in the flower that quietly blossoms for you.

And even at night, I shine on the moon - a promise I hope you will see... So you know in your heart that my love and my light are with you... and always will be."

Even I never knew her in person I feel as one part of me has gone.

Dear Cousin,
We didn’t get the chance to say goodbye but if I could have said two words to you I would have said : « « thank you ! » ... thank you for your generosity , thank you for your delicate attentions. Never any useless words but always this everlasting smile and kindness which breaks any the language barriers. Your language is the language of love and will be graved in my heart forever. I’ll never forget this weekend we spent in my house in Normandy in 1999 where you spent the all time sewing my curtains smiling and being your lovely self doing your best to please me , you filled my heart with your smiles and your generosity... Its been more than 20 years ago and I changed the decoration several times but I’ve never been able to take them of because you touched my heart and my soul so deeply on that weekend. I remember thinking to myself : «  you are probably the best of all of us ! » I’ve never told anyone about it but I still think of you every time I watch those curtains and I’ve always been so proud to tell everyone «  that’s my Canadien cousin who sewed my curtains ! aren’t they beautiful ? even if they are now kind of falling a little bit apart after such a long time but they are and they will alway be the most beautiful curtains I have ever had because they are the only ones which have ever been sewed for me with love. Rest in peace dear Angel ♥️
