Milan Pekez

Milan was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather whose life was marked by quiet strength, love, and kindness. A man of few words, he expressed his devotion through acts of service and generosity. Known for his exceptional woodworking skills and lifelong love of sports, Milan’s craftsmanship reflected his humble, steady, and deeply caring nature. His handmade creations will remain treasured reminders of his life and love.

After spending several years in Germany, Milan immigrated with his family to the United States in 1968. He embraced his new home with deep gratitude and pride, often sharing his appreciation for the opportunities and freedoms this country provided. With courage and resilience, he built a better life for his family, guided by devotion and love. His legacy endures in the lives he shaped and inspired.

Milan will be deeply missed by his family and friends. He is survived by his beloved wife of 63 years, Desa; his daughter, Slavica; his son, Marko and wife Kimberlie; his five grandchildren, Matthew, Milan, Savannah, Maja, and Nicholas.

A Funeral Service will be held on Sunday, October 5, 2025, with visitation at 12:30 p.m., followed by the service and burial at Roswell Funeral Home, 950 Mansell Rd, Roswell, GA.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Parkinson’s Foundation (www.parkinson.org) in his memory.

Milan’s quiet love, deep appreciation for his adopted country, and steadfast spirit will forever remain in the hearts of all who knew him.
