Drago Cvetkovich Obituary

Drago Cvetkovich

June 3, 1930 - October 12, 2013

Drago was born in Otushishte, Macedonia and immigrated with his wife and children to Chicago, IL in 1962. For many years he worked at Wisconsin Steel Works as a welder. In 1987 he and his wife made their home in Kirkland, WA so they could be close to their children and grandchildren. During his 83 years he enjoyed playing cards with family and friends. But what Drago enjoyed most was spending time with family. He was known for his kindness and gentle words. Everyone who met him adored him. He was simply a good man.

Drago is survived by his wife of 64 years, Jordanka; two daughters Marian McManus (Kirby) and Nada Donnelly (Tim); grandchildren Jenna Yackish (James), Jason McManus, Serena Donnelly, Alex Donnelly and brother Borislav.

Visitation will be held on Wednesday Oct. 16, at 6:00 pm at Evergreen Washelli, 18224 103rd Ave NE, Bothell WA 98011. Funeral service will be Thursday Oct. 17, at 10:00am at the same location. Please go to www.washelli.com to sign the guestbook.
