Milica Stankovic

Milica was adopted by a wonderful, loving and caring couple. Her brother was adopted by another couple. He ended up living and dying in Sweden a few years ago.

Milica learned many things from her adopted parents. The most important were being kind, caring and helpful to others which became the foundation of her soul. Eventually Milica met Mirko and she gave birth to two sons in Yugoslavia (Danny and David). Mirko ended up by himself in Canada and when the time was right, Milica and her sons travelled to Canada to join him in 1963. In 1966, Milica gave birth to her daughter (Diane) in Stratford, Ontario. We lived there until we moved to Prince George in 1976 and this has been home ever since.

She was the best cook ever and made the most wonderful European dishes. She put love into everything she did. The things she loved most in life were her family, friends, animals and nature.

She was diagnosed with breast cancer in June 2021 and had kept her head up ever since. Unfortunately, the time came to say good-bye.

She is predeceased by her husband Mirko, son Danny and daughter Diane. She is survived by her son David (Angela), grandkids Milissa, Samantha and Jordan and by great grandkids Marley and Damian.

Many thanks to Northern Health, BC Cancer Centre for the North, the caring crew of Rapid Mobilization, the Canadian Red Cross and the Rotary Hospice House for helping us keep her here as long as possible.

There will be no service.

Gonna miss you big time Grammas.

Love your family, friends, pets and your garden.
