Dear Gadzovski Family, We were saddened with the news of the sudden loss of Sonja. We would like to send our condolences to the family and we pray for them in these extremely hard times. I remember Sonja from a very small age, she lived around the corner with her parents and brother. We all attended Warrawong Public School. Sonja was 3 years older then me and I remember feeling comfort with her as an older cousin at school. On the first couple of days she went out of her way to show me where the school canteen was and make sure I was generally ok. I remember being saddened when the family decided to live back in Macedonia and missed their company. The next time I seen Sonja was in 1990 when I travelled to macedonia with my mother. I spent a few days at Sonja's house and enjoyed her company. She found it very funny that I had gone out with her brother and got very drunk, vomitting all over their lounge. Sonja was absolutely gorgeous, well spoken and friendly. We all had the pleasure of spending some time with Sonja and Kire in Australia 2 years ago. We spoke about old times and laughed, I joked how she was older than me, quite stuck up and didn't like having me around, she jokingly disagreed. Cele, KIre and Natalia we hope you can be strong in these tough times and get on with life, remember Sonja for the beautiful person she was and know she will always be looking over you. A little about how we are related:- Sonja's grandmother Neda and my grandmother Menka were sisters. Sonja's father Jovan and my Mother Nada were first cousins. Therefore making Sonja and I second cousins. Even though there is a huge geographical distance between us, we feel your pain and are grieving with you. Sonja has a large family here in Australia and we would love to stay in contact Cele, Kire and Natalia and get to know each other and hopefully spend some time together. Our door is always open and you are welcome to come and visit whenever you like, we are also a phone call or email away if you need to talk. You are in our thoughts and prayers, Love Teta Nada, Tetin Kole, Cousin Jim, (wife) Julie, niece Madison, nephew Kyle Ristevski. Also cousin Claire, (husband) Goran and nephew Jordan Kotevski. my details:- Jim Ristevski 49 Little Lake Cres, Warilla NSW Australia 2528 +612 4295 7272 (home) +614 12 126 256 (cell) jim@steelcitybevco.com.au (email)
