    • Mileva lived in NJ with Yanko Sr. He lived with her until he died.

      Mileva, my dad's (Nikola) sister was stunning. She was super super tall
    • They (Janko?) both lived in Florida at the end.

      She died of cancer. Then he died. Her daughter was down in Florida so she took care of John until he died a few years ago.
