November 19, 1926 — July 20, 2024

Anka Vukelic passed away peacefully in her sleep on Saturday, July 20, 2024, at the age of 97.

She was predeceased by her husband Marko, parents and twelve brothers and sisters.

She is survived by her loving children: son Kresimir (Donna) and daughter Maria (John); grandchildren: Sara (Richard), Jason, Shadi (Tasha), Amanda and Mark; great-grandchildren: Adelie, Arianne, Kyrie, and Blake.

She was an amazing wife, mother, and grandmother (Baka) who loved us all so much. We are all going to miss her love, laughter, stories, and her amazing food that she showered us with our entire lives.

God took her peacefully, for that we are all grateful to reunite in heaven with Tata and all her family that she spoke of often and missed so dearly. Her body and mind is whole, and her spirit is free to be with her loved ones again on her new journey.

Mom, we all miss and love you, and thank you for all that you did for all of us in our lives. We will forever carry you in our hearts until we meet again.

A very special thank you to all the staff at Spring Valley Care Center for their love and care over the years. A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Segers & Jackie for all their exceptional care and regard for Mom and her health through all these years. Thank you for all your support and kindness.
