Zeljko Ivanov

July 5, 1950 - January 10, 2026

Zeljko Ivanov, 75, passed away surrounded by love, leaving behind a legacy of devotion to family and quiet strength. He was a loving husband, father, and proud grandfather whose greatest joy was his family.

Zeljko was married to his beloved wife, Biserka, for 57 years. Their marriage was a true partnership built on love, loyalty, and unwavering commitment. Together, they raised three daughters-Dianne, Natasha, and Christina-who were the heart of his world and a reflection of the values he held dear.

He was a devoted grandfather to Natale (25), Freddie (23), Joseph (13), and Gracie (12), each of whom held a special place in his heart. He cherished every moment spent with them and took great pride in watching them grow.

Zeljko will be remembered for his kindness, steady presence, and the love he shared so freely. His memory will live on through the family he treasured and the many lives he touched.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in his memory.

Private family services will be held.
