Dear Father Janko & Family,
Although we are far away, our thoughts are with you and the entire family as we grieve the loss of our dear friend and part of the spiritual family that has shared and guided us, both, spiritually and earthly. We are richer for being part of your flock and having Protinica as an guiding example.
Respectfully and Affectionately,
Radmila & Miomir
