Marko Paljetak, sin Luke (+1942) i Marije (+1959) sin Poljica, Konavala, južne Hrvatske, mjesta koje je jako volio i kojima se cijeli život vraćao. I ovo ljeto 2023. vratio se u mjesta svoga djetinjstva. Uživao u pohodu mjestima, susretu s ljudima i plivanju u moru.
Trebao se vratiti u Chicago 5. kolovoza 2023., ali veli: „Neka nas još malo. Uskoro će dozrijeti grožđe i smokve. Sačekajmo do zrijanja.“ I ostade Marko sa svojom Katom još koji tjedan. I bi tako, njegov život dozrije tu gdje je i počeo, nakon 29, 573 dana. Ili kako piše na jednom od grobova u groblju Sv. Ane u konaovlskim Poljicima: “Čitav život tražio sam spokoj i eto ovdje ga nađe.”
Marko je bio star samo dvije godine kada mu je umro otac. Majka je podigla njih sedmero djece: Ivo (+2013), Stane (+2018), Marica (+2007), Đuro (George) (+2000), Anuška (+2019), Pave i Marko (+2023),
Marko je kao mladić otišao u Ameriku, u Chicago (1. ožujka 1969.) Njegova životna crtica kao da se dogodila od rujna do rujna. Rodio se 15. rujna 1942., u brak s Katom Vezilićem stupio u Chicagu, 6. rujna 1969. Majka Marija je umrla 22. rujna 1959., a Markov život u punom krugu dozrijevanja završi 2. rujna 2023.
Ovaj dobri čovjek pokopan je u groblju Sv. Ane, u Poljicima, Konavle, nedaleko od rodne kuće, gdje su pokopani njegov otac Luka, majka Marija, djed Ivo, baka Stana, brat Ivo i mnogi Paljetci.
Srce je uvijek žalosno kad odlaze oni koje volimo. Marka vole oni čije je srce tužno jer ga nema više ovdje: supruga Kate, djeca: Maryann, Luka, Paul i Anita, sestra Pave, unuci, rodbina, puno dobih prijatelja koji su Marka voljeli. Ali svi koji vjeruju znaju da je Bog ljubav i da ljubav nikada ne umire.
Našem Marku neka Bog udijeli svoj mir. Kako ono i oće, ako Bog da!

Marko Paljetak, son of Luka (+1942) and Marija (+1959), son of Poljica, Konavalo, southern Croatia, a place he loved very much and returned to all his life. This summer of 2023, he returned to the places of his childhood. Enjoyed visiting places, meeting people, and swimming in the sea. He was supposed to return to Chicago on August 5, 2023, but decided to stay saying: "Let us stay a little longer. Grapes and figs will soon ripen. Let's wait until it ripens." And Marko stayed with his Kata for a few more weeks. And so, his life matured where it began, after 29,573 days. Or as it is written on one of the grave stones in the old cemetery of St. Anne in Poljice, Konavle: "I've been looking for peace all my life, and here I find it."
Marko was only two years old when his father died. His mother raised their seven children: Ivo (+2013), Stane (+2018), Marica (+2007), Đuro (George) (+2000), Anuška (+2019), Pave and Marko (+2023),
As a young man, Marko went to America, to Chicago (March 1, 1969). His life story seems to have happened from September to September. He was born on September 15, 1942, married Kata Vezilić in Chicago on September 6, 1969. His mother, Marija, died on September 22, 1959, and Marko's life, in the full circle of maturation, ended on September 2, 2023.
This good man was buried in the old cemetery of St. Ane, in Poljice, Konavle, not far from his birthplace, where his father Luka, mother Marija, grandfather Ivo, grandmother Stana, brother Ivo, and many good people from the Paljetak family are buried.
The heart is always sad when those we love leave. Marko is loved by those whose hearts are sad because he is no longer here: his wife Kate, children: Maryann, Luka, Paul and Anita, sister Pave, grandchildren, relatives, and many old friends who loved Marko.
As it is sad to say goodbye to Marko, we all believe and know that God is love and that love never dies.
May God grant our Marko his peace.
