Borisa Tomasevic

<3

Dragi Borce, uvijek ce te se rado sijecati tvoji drugari iz Zenice, Eki, Elvedina, Edina, Mario , Tito i ostali, neka ti vijecna slava!

My Love,
You might be gone but you will live in my heart forever!

One year before I met Boris and Sabina, I lost someone very dear to me. When I was first introduced to Boris, I was struck by how he reminded me of my Godfather. Because of that, I felt a connection with him. As I got to know him better, I discovered what a remarkable person he was.
What I loved most about Boris was his sense of humor. He loved to joke with my dad and my uncle, and they teased each other about everything. My husband, Nicolas, soon joined their inner circle, and I’ll always envision them in our kitchen, with rum and coke in their glasses and laughter on their faces. Boris’ smile was contagious, and it’s imprinted on my heart.
When I gave birth to my daughter, Boris was overjoyed. They loved each other dearly and he was a giant teddy bear with her. Angelina has a special affection for Boris, and he possesses a special place in her heart.
Boris was one of the first people who made my husband feel welcomed in Canada. They shared many lengthy conversations (as well as many cigarettes) and despite the language barrier, they always understood and appreciated each other. Nico didn’t think of him as a friend of my parents; he considered Boris a treasured friend of his own.
To say that Boris was “like family” doesn’t do justice to how my daughter, my husband, or I feel about him. He was not “like family”. He is family.
Love is unbreakable, and the bonds that love creates are everlasting. The people we love most never actually leave us. We may not see or hear them, but they’re always there. Like all those I love, Boris will always be with me. He’ll live forever in my thoughts, and forever in my heart. And I’m grateful to know that I can always find him there.

Ima bica koja nitko ne može zamijeniti.
Ona dolaze ko pjesma
koju smo negdje zaboravili
Ona su san bez kojeg smo umirali…
Ako ih izgubimo
Sve smo izgubili.
Ima bica koja nitko ne može zamijeniti
(A. Petricevic)
Evo vec danima hocu nesto da napisem ali ne znam sta reci...sta reci osim JAKO MI JE ZAO...

I will always remember Boris as a great teammate and friend. I'm very glad to have known him and shared some good times over soccer and the occasional beer. The picture to the right is exactly how I will remember him. I'm very sorry for your loss.

Dear Sabina, Vanja and Igor,
I am stunned and sad and have a hard time to find words. Boris had such a great humour that was heartfelt and so contagious. My deepest sympathy

Dear Sabina, Vanja and Igor,
Susan and I are deeply saddened to hear about the unexpected passing of your Boris.
He was always part of the fun that playing soccer together and sharing a beer after brings to us. I will miss my friend. May love and friendships help all of you through the difficult times ahead. God Bless.
Prokop and Susan

Boris will be in our memories as long as we'll live: A kind friend, fun to be with, lost but not forgotten.
Dear Sabina, Vanja and Igor, we share your pain.

Even I just met Boris for twice when we played together soccer and beered together after soccer, Boris left me a deep impression by his friendly smile and honest advice --- UofA and Canada is a good place for living and working. Now it's so sorry that we lost Boris in this nice place and country. May Heavens rest his soul.

Draga Radojka, Sabina, Vanja, Igore i Branko primite nase saucesce.

Dear Sabina, Yanja and Igor,
Words fail me, which is ironic as words never seemed to fail Boris. He could tell a story like nobody I've ever met. I miss him, but am thankful for the time we had with him. We grieve for him and with you.

Sabina and Boys, our deepest sympathies at the loss of your husband and father.

Shaun, Dawn , Brendan, Robert and Liam Mitchell

On behalf of all soccer players from FC Slavija - Edmonton ( FK Slavija Republic of Serbs) our deepest symphaties to the closest and extended family.
Borisa will never be forgotten.
RIP

Dear Sabina, Vanja and Igor,
I admired Boris and I was inspired by him-he had a passion for life. He always had a smile and strong opinion about everything. I loved playing soccer with him and hearing his stories about his homeland. Please accept my sincere condolences.
Sincerely,
Robert Fisher

On my own behalf and that of my family, please accept my sincere condolences. I was very sorry and shocked to learn of Your loss. Boris will for sure be greatly missed by many, including myself.

Nema reci kojim bi opisali bol i pruzili utehu. Budite jaki. Cuvajmo vecnu uspomenu na naseg Borisu.

We will keep Boris’s fond memories with us. He was always interesting, entertaining and always talking about his beloved boys.
May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Sabina, This is a sad time, you and the boys are in my thoughts. I will miss that crazy soccer guy.

A Native American Prayer:

I give you this one thought to keep -
I am with you still - I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.

When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.

Do not think of me as gone -
I am with you still - in each new dawn.

Sabina, You have my deepest sympathies. Know that you and the boys are loved and you will get through these difficult times. Though I only met Borisa a couple of times, I will always remember what a warm and lovely host he was.

Dear Sabina, Vanja and Igor, we can not imagine hardache and grief you must feel at this time. You are in our thoughts every minute of the day and Borisa will newer be forgotten.

So sorry to hear of your loss Sabina. Thinking of you as you go through this difficult time. Take care.

Sabina and family, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. May the angels help and guide you through this difficult time.
