Vancouver, BC at the age of 89.
Blaž is survived by his wife Nada Maria; son Tony, daughter Sally

Blaž was born on January 24, 1931 in Šibenik, Croatia to
Ante and Slavka Bujas. He married Nada Brunac of Brbinj, Dugi Otok,
Croatia in 1957. They were married for 63 years.
He immigrated to Canada in 1960 starting out life in the new world
in Saskatoon. Nada and Tony joined him in 1961. Sally was born in
Saskatoon. The family moved to Vancouver in 1966 and moved into
their home in 1967 where he and his wife lived until his dying day.
Blaž was a hard-working man, a welder by trade. He was accomplished
at metal craft and often made fence and balcony railings. His hobbies were
gardening and wine making. He was a sports fan especially of professional
wrestling. He liked to socialize with people and would often break out into song
at a party. It was difficult to get him to smile for a photograph but his family has
many photos of him wearing a favorite red plaid shirt. He was dedicated to his
wife and family. He will be greatly missed and will always be in our hearts.
