TWB * Sincere Condolences *
Denis and family and to all those who were fortunate enough to get to kmow this fine specimen of a man to whom I have known for 40 years. > I never met such a hardworking man, his dedication and his quiet nature, yet full of wisdom and advice shared from his life’s journey from his homeland eventually creating a new life here in Canada.
Having grown up with the Croatian community and its culture, and to have very close old friends of Croatian heritage I got to know Denis and his dear parents….as time passes by ever so quickly, and seeing many Croatians that I have known for many years have since passed away throughput the years, only brings back many fond memories.
* an end of an era * .
To the family Mamic, my heartfelt condolences.
” Silent Night, Holly Night,…Silent Night, Holly Night,..
Sleep in Heavenly Peace,…Sleep in Heavenly Peace Nick “..

Ivan Matkovic To Denis and Patricia and Family, Mira and Jim and Family. My heart is saddened, you all and our Croatian Community have lost a very nice man. One of the pioneers that helped establish our church and community making is strong for our generation. Personally having known Mr. Mamic for quite a while it is difficult not being there at this time for you all but I know we in the community will do something. Pocivaj u Miru Bozjem!!!
Jedan od najbolji Hrvata. Prošao u miru.
