Roz I was sorry to hear about Milan, and he will be missed. My name is Hank Milcich and I knew his family because I was born in Gary. I played for his Brothers wedding year ago and my family were known to each others when they were all alive. I was at your home once with my son Tim years ago to see Milan. I live in St. Petersburg, Fl.for the past58 years. I was much older than Milan like 6 years.
God will take care or him, because he was a great person

Love Hank Milcich

The Opacich Family:
We are new to NW Indiana but have been touched by both the obituary and the article in the Valpo paper about Mr. Opacich. We wish we had known this remarkable,musical,generous man. You have our sympathy, but celebrate the wonderful memories you must treasure from the years you shared.

Roz,
I don't know if you remember me, but I was so sorry to here of your loss. I only had the opportunity to meet Milan once, but he was such a wonderful person. How is your little Susie? Yes, I gave her to a wonderful couple.

Dear Roz and Karin,
I'm not quite sure you remember me, but I grew up with Barbara and Ruthann Sever so I was always around St. Sava and Zora. I was so sorry to hear of Milan's passing, he was also so nice to my brother Sanford and myself whenever we saw him. I once needed to have an appraisal on my fathers violin and the only person I could think of was Milan, I talked to him and said to have one of the girls bring it to him and he would do it and give it back which he did. My thoughts...

Dear Roz and family,
No words will fill the void you are going through,but know that Joyce and I feel your loss.God rest in peace to a very fine gentleman
