Vanessa, I'm heartbroken for you. I'm so grateful I got to share my Croatian books with your mom—she had such a beautiful spirit. You have her strength. I love you and I'm here. PUMB

Vanessa and Family. I found some pictures that will make you smile and see the life she had. Teta Kaja always had a smile. I hope you can enjoy these pictures. My favorite pic is the ladies on the road. They look like some type of SQUAD PATROL. Our sincere deepest sympathy, Love Family Bedek

Dear Vanessa and All Family: This is a very heartbreaking time. Our family sends you so much love and condolences and prayers at this time. Your Mom was a gem, much stronger than any diamond in the world. She had a welcoming smile and kind gentle laughter that you would laugh with. There was not an ounce of negativity and hatred in her. Whenever she saw a problem, she would bring in positivity and say, “Come on Guys!” Suddenly, all went calm. Magically. Teka Kaja has left a HUGE LEGACY. From her home in Croatia, to Etobicoke, Mississauga, and then Parry Sound and into New Brunswick where she lived to the utmost of life. Thank you, Teta Kaja, for being a very big part of our lives. You are resting now to take you on your next Journey. OK, now You go get them up there!! Oh, let’s not forget the baking she did, Oh My God!! That will never be forgotten either. Our Love Forever, Family Bedek

Dear Vanessa and Family: With sadness and very heavy hearts, I am so sorry to hear the passing of your Mother (Teka Kaja to Us). As a Child growing up, I remember how caring and understanding your Mother was. She was truly a great and loving person; a very hard-working person; a GREAT COOK – 5 Star Chef. Ani and I always felt safe with your Mother. Also, the memories of the parties and dinners at the Farm that Your Mom and other mothers (Kuma, Draga and Mama) used to make. Oh that was Heaven food. She will be truly missed in so many other ways. Thank you so much for the love, laughter, and fond memories. Oh yes, thanks for all that good home cook food and baked goods. Missing you John Bedek
