Aleksandar Stevanovich Obituary

Stevanovich, Aleksandar
56, passed away peacefully in his home on Thursday, September 3, 2015, after a long health struggle. He was born on Father's Day on June 21, 1959, in Gary, Indiana and moved to Phoenix with his family at the age of 15. A 1977 graduate of Cortez High School, Aleks subsequently joined the U.S. Air Force and proudly served for twenty years.

He is survived by his children, Lora Ann Stevanovich and Maks Stevanovich, grandson Noah, siblings Milan (Kathy) Stevanovich of Valparaiso, Indiana and Zora (Dushan) Manjencich of Scottsdale, nieces and nephews and many Kumovi.
