<div itemprop="description">With heavy hearts and sorrow we announce the passing of our husband and father Milan Mico Marijan on Friday, July 31, 2015. Milan was born in a family of Serb nationalists in Lika to Branko and Anka Marijan, amongst his brothers Djordje, Marinko, Dusan and sister Milica. His father died in battle during W.W. II and his brothers emigrated with the Royal Serbian Army (Cetniks), leaving Milan, Dusan and his mother Anka to fend for themselves. Through this environment he forged a sense of integrity and stoic attitude to his world and its surrounding. From this he gave our entire family the tools to cope through thick and thin. For this we are eternally thankful. He married his true love Milica Marijan in 1961. In the early seventies they immigrated to Canada and built a prosperous and tranquil life. Dad retired, dabbled in the garden, had drinks with his friends, made his own sljivovica and travelled to his home in Podum, Lika and Vinca, Serbia annually. He loved his family here and in Serbia, loved politics and loved the Price is Right. He adored his grandkids Sasha, Aleksa, Sofia and Stefan and they adored him. Predeceased by his three brothers and sister, he leaves behind his wife of 53 years Milica, his son George (Djordje) and his daughters Dunya (Dunja) and Bianca (Branka), good friends, a large family here and in Serbia, Lika and scattered world wide. <br /> <br /> <br />Dear dad, we will miss you and never forget you. Your beliefs and life story will live on in the hearts and souls of your children and grandchildren. Love you, be at peace and until we meet again. <br /> <br /></div>
