The testimony of Viktorija Kolarič, née Bajda - Online Event

“I don’t know why God saved us, but He did!”

The testimony of Viktorija Kolarič, née Bajda, from Prebačevo near Kranj uncovers memories of wartime. Her father fled the Partisans and joined the Home Guard. Following a retreat to Carinthia after the end of the Second World War, he did not return to Yugoslavia due to his wife’s late pregnancy, unlike other Home Guard members sent there by the British. This is how he escaped certain death. The family moved to the US, where Viktorija got married and started a family. She first returned to her homeland only in 2003, when Slovenia was already independent, and was captivated by the beauty of her native land.

The testimony of Viktorija Kolarič, née Bajda was recorded in 2011 in Cleveland and can be heard at: https://zakladnicaspominov-scnr.si/viktorija-bajda-kolaric/?lang=en
