Friends Beyond the Creek left a message on September 21, 2019:
Maria was a neighbor and friend of those - “Beyond the Creek” on Pelican Lake, Mn. Where she and her “Beloved Zvonko” would spend their summers. She was a devout Catholic attending Mass and receive Communion every Sunday, as well as walking the road with Zvonko praying - saying the Rosary. She hosted dinner for the parish priest weekly where Father and Zvonko would share a 3M - (Zvonko,s - Minnesota Man’s Manhattan). We will miss Maria’s kindness and patience as the host of the community get together. We all marveled at her use of the computer in her late years. We’ll remember her as devoted Christian woman, wife, mother, and friend - an inspiration and model to us all. She was the best of the greatest generation, and we were blessed to having known her.Blessings and Prayers for Maria’s family from Friends “Beyond the Creek”
