Dear Branka, Diana and family, Marcus and children, I didn’t really know Sanja all that well. She spoke very fond of her husband to be, her mother and family. The first time I met Sanja was in a cigar lounge that I hung out at In Southgate. I’m from Chicago living in Detroit for work and only knew a few people there. My buddy said to me “ hey! the girl next to you is a fellow country woman”. I turned to Sanja and said “ are you Serbian ? She said yes, I said me too, I asked where is you’re family from in the old country, she said Montenegro , I said me too, where in Montenegro, she said bjelo Polje. I had a chill go through me as I said so was my family. What a small world. She tells me the story of her family migrating to Detroit as mine did to Chicago. I immediately picked up the phone as did she, I called my dad and she called her mom. Lol, That’s what Serbs do, we think we all know each other somehow and if we can’t figure it out we call our parents and guaranteed they know someone that knows your family. I thought we were lost brothers and sisters some how. We laughed and drank that night and I felt like I was sitting next to my sister. What a wonderful person. A true Crna Gorka. Strong woman and took no shit. But very kind and good hearted. I was only fortunate one other time to be in her presence. I’m truly sorry for your loss. Žao mi je zbog tvog gubitka.

To Sanja's Loving Family + Friends, Our hearts are heavy at Carhartt. Sanja was loved, respected and appreciated around the office no matter what building or role she was in. Always kind, helpful and straight-to-the-point in the boring finance or purchase order info she needed from me :) . The best a colleague could ask for. We'll miss her smiling face and her beach scene desk-top background that we all passed by so many times a day- she worked to live! And that's exactly what she did - she LIVED her life. Such fun trips and stories and one of a kind experiences. I am 100%, without a doubt, certain that's where she is right now - on a beach - smiling down on Marc, the kids, her Sister, Mother and the rest of her loved ones with a tasty cocktail in hand. Thoughts and prayers of strength and support this day and always. Sincerely, Katie M

Sanja was a dear dear friend. I met her at Applebee’s because she was drinking my beer and I offered her a T-shirt and that night I ended up at her condo chatting for hours. That’s how friendly and loving she was . Sanja was someone I could talk to anytime or anywhere . We pretended we were getting married by taking a bunch of photos at a golf course and posted them on fb. I think the only reason I didn’t marry her cuz I am gay lol. We had fun on our trip up north and the many times hanging at various bars downriver . Sanja I never wanted you to go before me but I promise you one thing !! I WILL NEVER EVER FORGET MY SANJA !!! I LOVE YOU AND WILL MISS YOU 4 EVER

Here is Sanja on the top right at one of my earliest birthday parties- circa 1979/1980 in Wyandotte on 22nd St.

The first time met Sonja was at a Bull Riding event in Tampa Florida. She walked into the stadium with jeans tucked into a pair spiked heel cowboy boots. She was the essence of stunning beauty! Every body was captured by her wide smile and sincere personality. Over the next ten years, we partnered on several events, always went to dinner at meetings and became friends. She was a consummate professional and could work a room full of disparate personalities with ease. The world is much dimmer now that she is gone. I will never forget you, Sonja.

Dear Branka, Diana and family, Marcus and children, We are so sorry to hear about Sanja. I was telling Lisa & Annie that I always thought she was such fun, so full of life and determined to enjoy every minute. I remember how proud she was when she got the Spree...she had such a big smile riding that scooter all over town and then when she got her license she moved up to the GEO Tracker!!! When we ran in to her some years ago she was so happy with her job and the traveling. I remember Vic, Branka and you Diana, always standing beside her not knowing what Idea she would come up with next but giving her support and encouragement. You are a wonderful loving family and you lost someone special way too soon. As your former neighbors and life long friends, we grieve along with you and pray that she rests in the arms of God and you find peace in many happy memories. Mary & Hugh McFarlane Lisa & George Mawle Anne & Craig Petitpren
