I was just starting to get to know you Dejan. In the little bit of time I got to spend with you, you truly inspired me to do better. Your smile always lit up the room. You remind me so much of a grown version of my own son and I hope he grows up to be so bright and caring as you are. Our time getting to know each other was cut short, but not a day goes by that I don't think of you. Prayers and warm thoughts to your family.

Im glad that i got an opportunity to meet you Dejan. I enjoyed talking to you about sports and other things that we had in common when we ran into each other at work. It saddens me that you are no longer here, i often looked forward to chatting with you and always admired how positive and friendly you were with others. You will be missed and i most certainly wont forget our time together.

Dejan I met you almost a year ago but in that short time I really got to know how great of a person you are. You are a friendly guy who always had a big smile on. We would talk about sports and joke around all the time. I will miss talking and seeing you around work. Anyone who had the pleasure of meeting you knows your a good person. I hope the best for Dejan's family. Rest in peace Dejan. You will be missed.

Dejan,
You were and always will be an amazingly bright and upbeat individual and my heart goes out to your family and friends. Every time I saw you there was a smile on your face and got nothing but positive vibes from you. It's saddening to know that I won't see you at work regularly but I know that you're still watching. I'm not very good with goodbyes, so I'll just say that I'll be seeing you later and just know that you're terribly missed by me and the countless others that had the honor of meeting and getting to know you.

Until next time,

Dejan,
You were a smart and amazing person. I didn't know you for a long time, but the time spent at Safeway with you was enjoyable. I miss hearing your crazy weekend stories. I miss seeing your smile when I walked into work each day. All I see now is an empty desk. You will truly be missed! Rest in Paradise, my friend. My prayers are now with your family and friends.

To my dearest close friend, Dejan Fonjga, you were such a joy in many friends' lives. The wax and wane of pain and sorrow doesn't fade with time, it only changes the shadow it casts. You will be the light of remembrance to youth, vibrancy and adventure and the shadow of reminiscence to always smell the roses of friendship, love and life. Just as a rose, your thorns will scar the hearts of many, but flower in memory.

Dejan, you were always an amazing friend and you were always there for me. You were never involved in drama and always had an amazing outlook on life. You are one of the best people I know and someone to look up to. You will be deeply missed. I love you brother. Never goodbye but see you later, whether it's in my dreams or one day in heaven, we will chill again soon. You and your family will be in my prayers.

Dejan,
So hard to be writing this to you right now. I'm really going to miss you. I'll miss visiting you at your desk at work, joking in the hallway, trying to figure out how many old friends we had in common, and mostly just always seeing you smile. If you were having a bad day I would have never known it because you were always so positive and just had such a wonderful presence. You were an intelligent, kind person, and I know you will be watching over all of us. I promise to keep your memory alive. See you again some day. Zach and I will keep your family in our prayers. <3
