It is with heavy hearts that the family announces the passing of a loving husband, tata, and dida. Ivan passed away peacefully at the Hamilton General Hospital on Wednesday, November 20, 2019 at the age of 77.
Beloved husband and best friend of Katica for 49 wonderful years. Loving and adored tata of Mary Ann Starcevic and her husband Mike, and Michael and his wife Brenda. Proud dida of Adam, Natalie, Luka, and Bianka. They were his greatest joy. Survived by his family in Croatia, including his sisters Ana, Marija, brother Mato and their families. Predeceased by his parents Mile and Ana, and brothers Nikica and Tomo.
Ivan retired from Dofasco after over 40 years of dedicated service. He was a proud member of the Hamilton Croatia Bowling League where he made many life-long friends. He was also a member of the CFU. It didn’t take much to make Ivan happy. One of his simple pleasures was to simply walk across his street and join his many friends for a game of bocce. He also enjoyed singing, sharing a good joke and watching his grandchildren play soccer. He was very true to his Faith and always put his family and others before himself. He will be dearly missed and always loved.
