Deepest condolences to the Siketa family on Aldo's passing. We have lost a truly great community figure whose contribution to the Croatian community in Geelong was immeasurable.

Počivaj u Miru Božjem 🙏

Remembering Aldo Siketa

It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of Aldo Siketa.

Aldo holds a very special place in the history of HKUD “LADO” Geelong. In 1972, Aldo and his wife Anica were proudly involved in the establishment, growth and development of the group, helping to build an organisation that has played such an important role in sharing Croatia’s rich cultural heritage through music, song and dance.

Aldo’s contribution and love for Croatian culture have left a lasting legacy.

Perhaps the most beautiful testament to his legacy is seeing his grandchildren and great-grandchildren continuing to perform, keeping the traditions, music and dances alive for generations to come.

Our deepest condolences to Aldo’s family, friends and all those who had the privilege of knowing him.

May he rest peacefully, and may his legacy continue to inspire generations to come.

Počivao u miru 🙏
