Ermidio

Busanic

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Ermidio Busanic, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and friend. Ermidio was born on July 6, 1951, in Susak, Croatia, and immigrated to America as a young adult, embracing a new life filled with opportunity and hard work.

Upon arriving in the U.S., Ermidio settled in Hoboken, NJ, where he owned a bar and married the love of his life, Doris Busanic. Together, they built a beautiful life, eventually moving to Cliffside Park, NJ, where Ermidio opened the Susak Fish Market. With dedication and perseverance, he ran the market successfully for over 30 years, becoming a respected and cherished figure in his community.

Ermidio was known for his affectionate nature, strong work ethic, and deep devotion to his family. Later in life, he moved to Fort Lee, NJ, where he enjoyed spending time with loved ones. One of his greatest joys was gathering at the Susak Klapa, where he played cards, watched sports, and shared stories with dear friends.

Ermidio is survived by his beloved wife, Doris Busanic, and his four children: Anthony Busanic (spouse: Christina), Kevin Busanic (spouse: Sabrina), Nicole Busanic, and Dana Tejada (spouse: Luis)

He was also a proud and loving grandfather to his five beautiful grandchildren: Jocelyn, Ryan, and Kelsey Busanic, and Nika and Noah Busanic.

Ermidio's warmth, kindness, and unwavering love for his family will be deeply missed, but his memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.

May he rest in eternal peace.

Ermidio Busanic on January 23, 2025 of Fort Lee, N.J., age 73.
