In loving memory of our beloved Baba Marika 'Baba quack quack,' whose humour and kindness were a constant source of joy. She was always the first to make a joke, brightening our lives with laughter and love. We will miss her dearly, but her spirit and laughter will stay with us forever. With love, from The Boshkov Family.

Sending sincere condolences and prayers to the family.
Through my volunteering with the elderly, I was introduced to Marika and in a short time, as we played cards together or watched TV or just chatted and laughed, we grew to love each other dearly. She exuded love for her family and enjoyed talking about them, especially her beautiful grand-daughters and great grand-daughters. She also liked to relate stories about her life back home, even remembering herself as a young girl knitting sweaters for her siblings. Watching her daughter, Donna, I could see through her the strength, love of family, and work ethic that was passed down by beautiful Marika.
I have read that, "when you lose a loved one, you gain an angel whose name you know," but I believe Marika was also an angel while she was here.
Dear Marika...thank you for your many hugs, (you gave the best hugs), kisses and the "I love yous," right to the end. Thank you for calling me your friend and your "sister". I will always love you and I hope to see you again. May you be at peace with the angels and God...Amen.

Hi to Donna and family. I am sorry to here the news. I was away in Macedonia and Italy until a few days ago. Your mom was, to me, a fun, energetic, bright and very resilient person. I will miss her too. I will make a donation in her memory. Bog da prosti. May her memory be eternal.
