Mirjana “Mila” Fatovic, 94, passed away peacefully in the company of family and friends at her home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida on March 11th, 2026.
Mirjana was born on the island of Ugljan, Croatia to the late Bepa (Simic) and Marcelo Saraga on November 14,1931 and married Milko Fatovic from the nearby island of Sestrunj, Croatia on June 2, 1952.
In 1962, Mirjana left post-war socialist Yugoslavia with her two young sons, Goran and Bozo, to meet her husband Milko in France who had left earlier to find work and a home for the family. Mirjana lovingly and tirelessly supported Milko and her sons when they immigrated to the United States in 1964, eventually becoming long-time residents of Claymont, Delaware where many of Mirjana’s family had previously settled. Mirjana and Milko moved to Sebastian, Florida in 1999 where they enjoyed an active life in retirement with many friends, family, and visitors.
Mirjana was a smart and strong woman who impacted others with her kind deeds, culinary talent and calm presence. Mirjana was a talented craft maker who prolifically sewed, knitted, and crotched many beautiful blankets, doilies and clothing, often as gifts to her family and friends.
