Danica loved gardening, the outdoors, animals, loved spending time and talking to our dogs late Dzeki and her Svrco Bailey. She spent hours patiently knitting or crocheting, wishing to surprise family members with her creations and leave something to be remembered by. Danica also loved to listen her favourite singers. Danica came to live in Canada in 2009 and made numerous new friends. Always with a smile on her face, open arms and friendly, she was loved by everyone she met even if they didn't speak same language, and most of them like our dear friend Aleksandra, next door neighbour.
