Stovana obitelj Boljesic,Kardum i ostala tugujuca rodbino,primite iskrenu sucut povodom smrti Vaseg muza,oca i djeda.Suosjecamo vas gubitak i Vasu bol.Neka Vam dragi Bog daruje utjehu i snagu u ovim teskim trenutcima.Uvjek kada gubimo drage nam osobe ostajemo siromasniji u zivotu.Ali ostaju nam lijepa sjecanja provedena u zajednickom zivotu.Mi smo u mislima i molitvama sa Vama.Katica i Gaja iz Svicarske.
Pocivao u miru Bozjem i neka mu je laka Kanadska zemlja RIP
Our heartfelt condolences to all of you on the loss of such a lovely man.
We remember Josip as someone with high moral standards who never shied away from truth. And on top of his never-ending patriotism for his beloved homeland, Croatia, Josip was also a “dobar Ličanin!” May he rest in peace. +
