Dusan Djorge Cosic'Cuk
February 3, 1926 - January 1, 2012
Born in Sisik, Yugoslavia on February 3rd 1926, Dusan was the son of the late Djorge Cosic-Cuk and Vera Decombria.
He joined the anti-fascist Chetniks (they also fought against the Tito-led communist Partisans) and fought in WWII at the age of 15.
In 1951 he came to America, settling in Chicago where he was employed by the Charles Munday Company starting as a general warehouse worker eventually retiring early at age 56 as Senior V.P.
He then traveled to Marshall, N.C. to pursue his love of woodworking, where he met and married Jeanne F. Bauknight.
Dusan is a lifelong member of Serbian/Russian Christian Orthodox Church. As the spiritual son of St. Justin Popovich, His life was centered around the Holy Church, and his piety was felt by everyone fortunate enough to know him. As one of the founding members of St. Elizabeth's Church, Dusan left behind a legacy of obedience and love for the Holy Church. He used his skills as a woodworker to build sacred items and shrines for the church, often working long hours and behind the scenes. Just as his works crafted from wood now adorning various churches serve as lasting memorials of his love for God and His Holy Church, may his memory be eternal before the throne of God in Heaven.
He is survived by his wife of twenty-eight years; Jeanne F. Bauknight of Columbia, SC.
