Note from Donor:

As a young man my father Predrag (Mikica tj. dr Panta) Pantelić (1949 – 2012) loved to listen to foreign music from his favourite radio station that he called: “radio program that Zoran Modli hosts!” Later in his life he befriended Modli and guest featured on his radio program, and also became an amateur radio host himself.

As a true lover of music, he amassed a considerable collection of discs and vinyls that I keep in his memory. He particularly loved the Phantom of the Opera. He’d play it at full volume while circling the neighbourhood in search of a parking spot… Modli gave a really nice speech at my father’s funeral.
