Obituary
Beloved eldest daughter of Mark Janjic and Melanie Janjic (nee McLean). Loving sister of Alexandra, Seka and George. Adored granddaughter of Scott and Natalie McLean and Nikola and Phyllis Janjic. Dear niece of Sarah (Jay), Mike (Cherilyn), Nathalie, Keli (Dave deceased), Kim (Rob) and Kayla, and will be missed by cousins Charlie, Natacha, Mika, Emily, Jesse, Robertson, Nik, Jessica, Eden and Isaac. Petra was our shining star and her achievements are many. She aced school with straight As, and had just graduated from Westdale High School. She loved the challenge of competitive dancing and cherished the friends she made along the way. She liked baking and cooking with her Mum – with excellent results. She was proud of her driver’s license and the freedom it provided. She spoke French and was learning German, and had hoped to travel to as many places as she could. She had a part-time job at our retirement home, brightening many days for the residents. Also, because of her high marks she was accepted to all the universities she applied to. She chose the University of Toronto (maybe she wanted to be close to home). She also was encouraged to apply to the Vic One stream (limited to 25 students) at U of T and was accepted. Petra was ambitious and enthusiastic. She was a serious student and excelled at anything she put her mind to. She was wise beyond her years and loved her family more than anything. She had a big smile that lit up a room. She was always upbeat and lived a very happy and fulfilled life – sadly so much shorter than we’d hoped, but with minimal suffering. For that we are grateful.
Rest in peace, dear Petra.

I didn’t know Petra but I remember her. Senior kindergarten at Earl Kitchener school. I noticed this girl, a very bright light with great energy. I asked my daughter Nuala, “who is that girl?”
She said, “Petra”. For some reason that moment has stayed with me.
Deepest and best wishes in your transition, Petra.
