To the Janzic family,
I am so sorry to hear of Joe’s passing. He was certainly a colourful character and will be deeply missed by all who knew him. I fondly remember homemade sausages and shots of “medicine” when visiting the farm.
I am very thankful for the visit we all had before Christmas. It was good to see you all then.
God Bless
Tony & Dianne Brckovic
We have lost a dear friend. Joe was like a brother to us and Tony worked with Joe in Croatia, Germany and they met up with each other in Winnipeg. We spent many happy hours with our children playing together. We prayed so hard that he would beat cancer, but the Lord has taken him home.
We will dearly miss you Joe but we are glad that you are no longer in pain.
Tony, Dianne Brckovic & Family
