Sam, Susan, Donna and Martha, My sincere condolences on the passing of your mother. She was a wonderful and kind person. I'll always remember how she welcomed us young guys into her home and took good care of us with cookies and cokes - always with a smile on her face. I think she gave me the better cookies because I was the Serbian kid, but that was never proven. The Orbovich family has always held a special place in my heart and I'll be praying for you all.

I'll never forget during my high school years .. JR and I would come over and "hang out" in Sam's basement, which was great fun. But I'd always sneak upstairs to chat with Mrs. O. I adored her. Happily, I was able to visit with her during a couple of lovely Sveta Petka Kolo luncheons in recent years. She was unfailingly warm and kind and accepting and a total class act. Sending love and condolences to Sam, Susan, Donna and Martha.
