With steady devotion and a quiet strength, Livia expressed her love in the daily work of caring for home and family—always cleaning, always cooking, always making sure others were tended to. Her deep commitment to those she loved was constant and unmistakable, felt most in the warmth of her presence and the reliability of her hands.

Livia’s early years were shaped by the island of Unije in Croatia, where she grew up surrounded by the sea and the rhythms of hard work. She spent her girlhood swimming and going to the beach, farming, and working at a sardine factory as a young girl—experiences that reflected a life grounded in perseverance and purpose.
