Florika “Flora” Draskovic, age 70, of Clinton Township, Michigan, passed away unexpectedly on November 19, 2024. She was a beacon of strength who overcame many adversities in life, a true inspiration to her family and others that knew her.
Flora was born in May of 1954 near Tetovo, Macedonia, in the small village of Kopance (at that time former Yugoslavia.) Flora committed to immigrating to the United States as a young woman, which was not an easy feat in the 1970s. She first lived in Austria before joining family in Detroit, Michigan by the age of 19. In the early years of American life in Detroit, Flora worked several jobs, married and started a family. She had a deep love for her family - her children, and granddaughters were the light of her life. She also maintained close relationships with her family in Macedonia. Flora was a true caregiver to many throughout her life. She will be greatly missed by family and friends alike.
